Light is a wave that travels through space across matter. The same way that waves travel from the center of a pond to the edges when you toss a stone in it.
the sun rays strike the surface at different angles as earth travel around the sun
lol earth
At the poles
Yes, It comes from the suns rays to the earth
well pluto is so far away that the sun rays can't reach out that far for it to be warmer and for earth,the earth is much closer and could get most of the suns hot rays
Absorbed
Obliquely
Ozone layer protects us. These powerfulrays are UV rays.
the tilt of earth affects the sun's rays because if it is tilted the shaded part will not get the sun's rays but the other side will.
The tilt of the earth changes how the sun stikes
In summer the suns rays travel directly to the surface at a steep angle, so are still warm. In winter the rays strike at a shallower angle, and cool down rapidly as they travel a longer distance through the atmosphere before reaching the surface.
The Equator is the point around the earth where the distance the suns rays have to travel through the atmosphere to reach the Earth is the shortest. At that point it shines almost directly down all year around.
