The amount of energy reaching a given area from a source of radiant energy is dependent on the angle of incidence of the energy. Radiation that contacts a surface at an angle of 60° from the normal has half as much energy per unit of surface area as radiation that is parallel to the normal, radiation that reaches the surface at 70.53° from the normal has one third the energy per unit of area, radiation at 75.52° from the normal has one fourth as much energy, and so on. Therefore, if light is contacting a surface that absorbs some of it and converts it to heat, the angle of incidence of the light will affect the temperature. Such is the reason why winters are colder than summers.
there are many reasons for heat in earths crust. like the friction between rock masses during movements of earths crust. there may also be heat left over from the original heat of earths interior. but the main reason for heat in earths crust is radioactive elements. they give off energy that can be absorbed as heat. some radioactive elements include uranium, thorium, and a form of potassium.
it's not impossible. The reason we have longitude and latitude lines are so that we are able to see the earth on a flat surface.
the heat change
There's really only one reason why geothermal energy isn't used everywhere: not everywhere on the planet has some measure of geological activity, which is required for the potential of geothermal energy to exist. Underground reservoirs of water are heated by geological activity, such as earthquakes and volcanoes. This water turns to steam and expands. It is the force this steam can exert through its own natural convection that geothermal activity taps into to generate energy. Therefore, geothermal couldn't be done in areas that aren't geologically active, such as the Sahara Desert.
Gravitational potential energy, is the energy an object possesses by reason of its position in a gravitational field. While elastic potential energy, is the energy stored by a material or object as a result of deformation e.g. the energy stored in a bow when it is stretched.
Ozone at ground level is a pollutant. It is a greenhouse gas.
that has to do with potential energy. it is for the same reason that an object nearer to the earth has less gravitational potential energy in the case of the atom,the attracting force is the electrostatic force.
The reason ATP as a molecule is used for energy in the cell is due to its instable structure. As such, because it wants to change, turning it into ADP actually releases energy.
the reason for that is because if a battery is not connected to a wall it will not get additional energy for its high potential electrons. the reason for that is because if a batttery is not connected to a wall it is not getting additional energy for high potential electrons
No, there would not be winds if the earth's surface was the same temperature everywhere. The reason why is because during the day the land heats up faster than the water.
Because the pollutions and the chemicals are so thick in the ozone layer, it is too dangerous for us to breath and if those chemicals and pollutant gases where to get to our surface, we'd get sick and/or die.
Wind (air) may have a bit of gravitational potential energy, since it's up there and not on the ground. But the real, substantial energy of wind, and the energy we take out of it to turn things and generate electrical energy, is its kinetic energy. That's the reason that 'windmill farms' are built in places with steady wind. If there's no wind, then there's no kinetic energy available to be robbed from it.
The Industrial Revolution began increasing the levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere when we started burning fossil fuel.
What is your reason for the topic -the potential market for suit?
to increase the surface area
the reason on how this is an example is when you let go of the arrow, the potential energy changes back into kinetic energy, allowing to arrow to fly off - Jaylin C
