Obviously the angle of incidence is different.
The oblique rays spread their energy over a larger area of the surface than vertical (also called perpendicular or normal rays)

What is an oblique rays?
Oblique is defined as 'slanting or inclined in direction, neither parallel nor perpendicular'. Oblique rays, such as those that come from the sun during winter, tend to bounce away more than they are absorbed, due to being shot at a wide angle.
What are the three types of asymptotes?
Three types of asymptotes are oblique/slant, horizontal, and vertical
Eratosthenes determined the circumference of Earth by conducting an experiment Put his steps in order as they correlate to the scientific method?
State the problem: How can we prove Earth is round and calculate its circumference? Make a hypothesis: If the sun casts shadows at different angles at the same time of day in different places, we can determine how much Earth curves. Make observations and collect data: In Syene, the sun's rays are vertical at noon. At the same time in Alexandria, the rays are 7.2 degrees from the vertical.
What is the name for the emission of rays and particles by a radioactive material?
The name for the emissions of rays and particles by a radioactive material are called radioactive decay. There are many different types of radioactive decay that emit different rays and particles.
How are direct rays different from indirect rays?
direct rays are from the sun and indirect rays are from something else, like it was reflected or something(ex:the moon. It bounces the sun's rays) AKT♥
Oblique rays are different from vertical rays because they?
They contain more solar energy!
How oblique rays are different from vertical rays?
These two types of rays differ in their Angles of Incidence: vertical rays bounce down and then right back up into themselves while oblique rays bounce off at different angles (vectors) from the incident angle of the incoming rays, also called waves. Compare this to horizontal rays that while sent out side to side, if they do not hit a mountain range, they will wave away indefinitely forever.
Why do the vertical solar rays produce more heat?
Because vertical solar rays are less oblique during Sumner and are concentrated over smaller areas
What is the relation between oblique and vertical incidence?
Oblique incidence applies to rays that are incident at some angle OTHER THAN at right angles (90 degrees) to the surface on which they are incident. Vertical incidence IS at right angles.
What is the different between oblique rays and vertical rays?
Either the answer will be that they contain more solar energy, it strike's the earth at an angle greater than 90 degrees, or it could be that they spread energy over a larger surface area.
Is x plus y equals 9 horizontal vertical or oblique?
oblique
What line is not horizontal or vertical?
Oblique
All of the solar energy intercepted by the earth arrives as oblique rays?
Oblique.
What is an oblique rays?
Oblique is defined as 'slanting or inclined in direction, neither parallel nor perpendicular'. Oblique rays, such as those that come from the sun during winter, tend to bounce away more than they are absorbed, due to being shot at a wide angle.
Why April month so hot in southern India?
Southern India lies in the equatorial belt. It receives almost vertical rays from the sun throughout april. These rays have a greater heating effect than oblique rays. Hence, south India is very hot in the month of April.
In which direction (relative to the spine) do the external oblique muscle fibers lie External Oblique muscles lie:?
run at an oblique angle to vertical direction of the spine.
What is oblique lines?
An oblique line can be diagonal, sloping or slanted. It is not vertical, horizontal, parallel or perpendicular.
