It reaches the land at Antarctica. It is because the ozone hole is present there.
What else can I help you with?
Are UVA rays more prevalent than UVB rays in sunlight?
Yes, UVA rays are more prevalent than UVB rays in sunlight. UVB rays are more intense but make up a smaller portion of the UV radiation that reaches the Earth's surface.
Do direct Rays heat a place more than indirect rays?
Yes, direct rays heat a place more than indirect rays. Direct rays are concentrated and deliver more energy per unit area compared to indirect rays, which are more dispersed and have lower energy intensity. This is why direct exposure to sunlight can feel much warmer than being in the shade on a sunny day.
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♥
How land and water are heated?
by the sun rays
Which rays have more energy x rays or gammy rays?
Gamma rays.
Why are the regions away from the equator cool?
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.
Why does the sun heat the land up the most?
The sun heats the land up the most because land absorbs sunlight more efficiently than water due to its lower albedo (reflectivity). This means that land retains more of the sun's energy compared to water, which reflects more sunlight back into the atmosphere.
Which is more intense the UV rays or the IV rays?
UV ray is more intense. IR rays are less.
Why the ground dry up quickly?
Ground / Land dries up quickly. this is due to evaporation and the heat consumed by the earth. the rays of the sun get absorbed more quickly by land than by water.
What would happen if all the rays from the sun reaches the earth?
The Earth will estart burn . It will be a planet with out living creatures
Is there any device that absorbs UV rays from the sun when it reaches earth?
Maybe, I dont really know. But I know that there's a natural device called "Ozone" which absorbs UV rays!
Are all of the solar energy intercepted by the earth arrive as oblique rays?
No, not all solar energy intercepted by the Earth arrives as oblique rays. Solar energy reaches the Earth in the form of parallel rays, but the angle at which these rays strike the surface varies based on the Earth's curvature and its axial tilt. This variation causes some regions to receive sunlight more directly (perpendicular rays) while others receive it at an angle (oblique rays). Consequently, the intensity of solar energy varies across different locations and times of the year.
