As the earth is in the form of a sphere, the angle of incidence of the sun's rays at the earth's surface increases from the equator towards the poles and therefore the amount of heat received on a GIVEN AREA diminishes in the same direction. Temperature is therefore normally hottest near the equator and coolest near the poles.
There is however, a seasonal variation of temperature owing to the annual changes in the sun's declination between 23.5 degree North and 23.5 degrees South. Not only is the inclination of the solar beam is involved, but also the lengthening of the day in summer at the higher latitudes, to some extent, compensates for the reduction of intensity of the solar radiation. This is why, combined with the very dry air of the eastern side of the subtropical anticyclone, the highest dry bulb temperatures are found in subtropical deserts and not at the equator.
The hottest mean temperatures are found in the lowest-latitude arid areas such as Somalia and Djibouti, which lie in the rain shadow of the Ethiopian Highlands. In these, very high insolation and low cloud cover allow for average maximum temperatures of around 35˚C (95˚F). In the Guajira Peninsula of Colombia, rain shadowed by the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, average maxima are around 33˚C 90˚F), whereas in the humid tropics they are around 30˚C (86˚F).
The sun's rays strike Earth at increasingly lower
angles with increasing distance from the equator,
thus providing less and less direct sunlight.
Because the sun is more concentrated on the earths equator.
The angle of the sun's rays changes as you get nearer the poles - meaning the heat has to travel through a greater thickness of atmosphere.
it might decrease or increase depends on the impurities added.:D
Rising global temperatures have also been accompanied by other changes ... Are human activities or natural variations in climate responsible for the ... warming we have seen in the past 50 years cannot be explained by natural factors alone.
Despite the very hot temperatures, volcanic flows behave a lot like water, and after being expelled from the volcano will flow downhill. Eventually they will cool and harden.
the temperature of hot colarmeter decrease and heat transfer by aluminum bar as time pass on .because energy flow high to law direction
Coast Mountains & the Islands: Generally an area of heavy precipitation. Apart from a wet regime, mild temperatures and long frost-free periods are the rule.
The law of increasing cost explains that as production increases, the opportunity cost of producing additional units of a good also increases. This is because resources are not equally efficient in producing all goods, and as more of one good is produced, resources are shifted from their most efficient use to less efficient uses.
remove the concentration of carbon, look up DBTT ductility to brittle transistion tempreture, this will explain that with increasing carbon ductility will decrease
After 7 or 8 years have gone by, would you say the rabbit population, overall, is increasing, decreasing, or staying about constant? Explain your answer?
The gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance. For example, if you increase the distance by a factor of 10, the force will decrease by a factor of 100 (10 squared).The gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance.

by increasing the terminal voltage
decrease in inventory will be shown as increase in cash in cash flow from operating activities as this is increasing the cash.
Lowered temperature lowers reactants speeds, and decreased the number of low-energy collision, reaction rates decrees with a decrease in temperature.
Vapor pressure increases as temperatures increase because water will evaporate in hot weather. This evaporation rises increasing the vapor pressure. This is why many areas have high humidity in the summer.
By "around the US" I'm guessing you mean "surrounding the US".By "explain the temperatures" I'm guessing you mean "explain the causes of the temperatures".The temperatures to the North of the US are colder because they are closer to the North Pole.The temperatures to the South of the US are warmer because they are closer to the Equator.The temperatures to the East of the US are generally warmer at the same latitude as they are to the West of the US. This is because the Great Atlantic Conveyor (thermohaline circulation) brings warmer waters up from the south.
The Aristotelian cosmos outlines that the planets travel in circular motion that is guided by physical spheres. However, the planets appear to increase and decrease in brightness, indicating that the distance between them and the Earth is changing. The Aristotelian cosmos cannot explain the variation in distance.
A machine makes work easier by changing the amount of force you exert, the distance over which you exert your force, or the direction in which you exert your force.
Explain how it's possible for sales growth to decrease the value of a profitable company.
