In the tropics. The sun is straight overhead at some time or other, between the tropic of Cancer, in the north and the tropic of Capricorn. During the equinoxes (vernal and autumnal), the sun is directly overhead at the equator.
At any given time, half (50%) of Earth is exposed to sunlight.
if there was no sunlight life on earth would not survive for very long.
Half of Earth is illuminated by the sun at all times.
The sunlight is partially absorbed by materials on Earth; when that happens, the energy in the sunlight is converted into heat energy.
yes because when the moons phrase changes its only us moving the sun points in only 1 spot but when earth spins we dont see it as that
8 minutes
Of course sunlight doesn't hit the earth's surface evenly! Countries on the equator or near it receive the most direct sunlight. And of course countries in the artic circle have hardly any! [^-^]
8minutes and 20seconds after it leaves the sun.
Approx. 8/9 mins.
Along the equator.
it takes about 8 minutes for the sunlight to get to the earth.
The tilt of the earth causes the sun to hit certain areas.
Because the rays of the sun is so hot it will heat any part of the earth witout being hit my direct sunlight
The sunlight rays hit me.
explain the effects of the sunlight striking earth
Sunlight that hits the Earth's surface is absorbed by the Earth. It is then reflected back.
the earth is heated by the sunlight and it affects it by it being too hot when the sunlight is shining on earth.
