Please keep this potted plant out of the direct sunlight.
the zone that receives direct year-round sunlight is the
not really it could melt in direct sunlight. but if it is not in direct sunlight then no. peace out guys
(slanted - 7 letters) - (direct - 6 letters) = 1 letter.
they both come from the sun
The temperature of the thermometer in the direct sunlight was higher than the thermometer in the drawer.
A thermometer is not kept in direct sunlight because the temperature needed to be recorded by the thermometer is of the air and not the rays of the sun.
A thermostat for heating or a thermometer for air temperature is typically placed on an inside wall (not outside wall), and away from heating vents or direct sunlight.
To observe the difference between the thermometer readings in the drawer and in direct sunlight.
Direct sunlight would heat the thermometer higher than the actual air temperature. A reading would be more accurate if taken in the shade, where the temperature reading would not be greatly different.
If a thermometer is laid out in direct sunlight, it will not measure the temperature of the air surrounding it. It will measure the temperature of the heat directly reaching it.
protect thermometer from direct sunlight
No, temperature is normally recorded in the shade.
stops direct sunlight from reaching to thermometer during the readings
If the thermometer had direct sunlught on it, it would give a false reading because it would be directly heated by the sun's energy in the rays. The idea of temperature measurement is to measure the temperarure of the immediate medium in which the thermometer is placed. The shelter provides this environment. For accurate internationally acceptable readings the shelter has to conform to specific dimensions and design criteria, as well as a certain height above the ground. Direct sunlight could also cause the thermometer to burst, depending on the maximum temperature scale on the instrument.
If it's in the shade, then the temperature of the air that wafts past it is. If it's in direct sun, then it's displaying the temperature of the structure of the thermometer itself, as it absorbs direct solar radiation and its temperature rises above that of the air that wafts past it.
When you have direct and indirect sunlight you might not understand it. It is actually quite simple. When you have DIRECT sunlight you have a warmer climate. When you have an INDIRECT sunlight it has a more humid or cool temperature. For an example the equator gets DIRECT sunlight most of the time. Hope this answers your question!
