yes the ozone layer is thinner at the poles then the equator
The energy that reaches the equator is more intense than the energy that strikes poles
Pole. (The north and south poles. They get less heat than the equator because the sun's rays hit the equator more directly where they hit the poles at an angle and have to be spread over a larger area.)
c. sunlight falls in a more vertical position at the equator than near the poles.
Spin, water & land mass distribution, plus mountains.
As air gets colder it contracts. While the total amount of air is about the same in any column of the troposphere, at the cold poles that column takes up less space, resulting in a shorter distance to the top of the troposphere.
The equator is closer to the Sun.The sunlight falls directly through the atmosphere and onto the Earth's surface, and is warmer.At the poles the sunlight is on a slant and has further to travel so cools down faster.
The poles receive less solar energy then the equator does because the radiation from the sun has to pass through much more atmosphere to reach the poles than to reach the equator. During that transit, more of the energy is scattered on the path to the poles, and less reaches the ground there.
On our Earth, the Equator is comparatively warmer than either of the Poles.
it is greater at poles than equator
Yes, there is more centrifugal force near the equator than at the poles of the earth.
Than the equator of what? The sun's equator rotates faster than it's poles (about 25 [Earth] days vrs about 40 near the poles).
It is measured around the surface of the earth. The atmosphere has its own measurement excluded from that of the Earth. The Equator is bulged, and the Poles slightly flattened. The figure given is for sea level, and ignores any mountains. The Poles are about 21.4 km closer to the centre of the Earth than the Equator is.
The energy that reaches the equator is more intense than the energy that strikes poles
The energy that reaches the equator is more intense than the energy that strikes poles
It is greater at the Equator. The boundary between the troposphere and the stratosphere varying in altitude from approximately 8 kilometers (5 miles) at the poles to approximately 18 kilometers (11 miles) at the equator.
Pole. (The north and south poles. They get less heat than the equator because the sun's rays hit the equator more directly where they hit the poles at an angle and have to be spread over a larger area.)
At the equator, the sun's rays strike the earth vertically - making their path through the atmosphere shorter than at the poles - thus more of the sun's energy reaches the earth's surface. Towards the poles, the angel of the sun's rays is flatter - meaning they pass through more of the earth's atmosphere.
