Where is the incoming suns energy most concentrated?
The equator
Where do the rays of the sun strike most directly on the earth the equator at the poles in the temperate zone or over the oceans?
i think it was at the equator or poles
Where are the suns rays most direct during the equinox?
A+ at the equator-inator DOOF
Why less heat is falls on poles?
because the equator gets the most
Why is ocean water near the equator warmer than ocean water at the poles?
The ocean receives most of its heat along the equator, where incoming solar radiation is about double that received at the poles. Hence, sea surfaces are much warmer along the equator than at the poles.
When is the sun at its lowest in the sky?
The suns rays are most direct around or at the equator.
How is a cylindrical projection made?
i think its near the equator probably. +++ NO: towards the Poles. Think about it - the cylinder is normally vertical and tangential to the globe around the Equator so the most accurate projection will be around the equator.
Why Africa is called the most tropical of all continents?
the suns rays hit the equator directly and that means that near the equator is tropical. the equator runs right through Africa.
What is the Most effective place in world of ozone hole?
Most effective place for ozone is equator. And for ozone hole is poles.
Why do the poles receive less solar energy from the sun?
The poles recieve less solar energy because they are farther from the equator than other places. The equator is the warmest place, it's where the sun gives off its most solar energy. If you have been to the Carribian you notice how it's hot and summer-like. Places by the equator don't really have seasons. Just summer weather. The poles, on the other hand, are far away from the equator, and the sun.
Which region always receives the suns most direct rays?
The equator receives direct rays from sun. It is present in front of sun.
Is gravitional force is different on poles and the equator of earth?
Yes, there is a slight difference. It is insignificant for most practical purposes, though.
