The tilt of the earth causes the sun to hit certain areas.
What else can I help you with?
How does the angle of sunlight hitting the earth affect the energy the earth receives?
The angle of sunlight hitting the earth affects the amount of energy the earth receives because sunlight is spread over a larger area when it hits at a lower angle, resulting in less concentrated energy. This can impact the intensity of heat and light received at the surface, influencing weather patterns and climate.
What is the amount of sunlight Mars receives in one Earth day?
Mars receives about half the amount of sunlight in one Earth day compared to Earth. This is because Mars is farther away from the Sun and has a longer day, lasting about 24.6 hours.
What is the amount of sunlight on the planet of Uranus?
Uranus receives about 1/400 that we receive on Earth
Why do cosmic rays cause the climate not to change?
I don't see why they should affect climate significantly. The total amount of energy Earth receives from cosmic rays is quite insignificant, compared to the energy it receives from sunlight.
Why does the earth receive different amounts of sunlight?
The Earth receives varying amounts of sunlight due to its spherical shape and tilted axis. This tilt causes different parts of the Earth to receive direct sunlight at different angles, leading to variations in the amount of sunlight received. Factors like seasons and Earth's orbit around the sun also affect the distribution of sunlight on Earth's surface.
What parts of the earth receives the least amount of sunlight?
The rainforest floor. The bottom of the ocean also.
What city receives the most sunlight?
Every place on the earth receives the same amount of sunlight each year. Every city gets the same amount of sunlight whether or not it is nearer to the Equator or the North Pole, which is six months of daylight and six months of nighttime.
What is Jupiter's amount of sunlight?
Jupiter is the fifth planet from the Sun and is the largest in the Solar System. It receives around 1/27 as much sunlight as Earth.
What factor most influences amount of solar energy an area on earth receives?
The latitude of an area on Earth most influences the amount of solar energy it receives. Areas closer to the equator receive more direct sunlight and therefore more solar energy, while areas farther from the equator receive less direct sunlight and less solar energy. Other factors such as cloud cover, air pollution, and elevation can also affect the amount of solar energy received.
What Location on earth relative to equator helps determine the amount of sunlight on area receives?
The two factors affecting sunlight intensity are latitude and time of year
How do the tilts of the earth on its axis affect the amount of sunlight received by your country?
23.5 degree
What location on earth receive the most sunlight?
On a yearly basis the Earth receives the same amount of sunlight on its total surface. The distribution of light to dark periods is different by latitude and time of year
