Why do different areas of the earth have different amounts of heats energy?

this is because the sun is always facing the middle and when the planets are in different spots the planet that is facing directly in the middle gets the most heat. the one that is far off like pluto, doesnt get much heat at all.

Which statement best explains why different areas of the Earth have different amounts of heat energy?
Different parts of the Earth get different amounts of solar(heat) energy.
The energy of light and other forms of radiation?
From the Sun. Also from other stars, and from distant galaxies - but we only get significant amounts of energy from our Sun.
What type of energy does a feather have?
The chemical bonds in the feather store considerable amounts of energy. The fealter also can have potential energy due to being raised a distance from the mass center of the earth.
Is Energy from the sun is converted into different types of energy on earth?
its is converted into fossil fuels
Why is wind energy indirect form of solar energy?
Indirect solar energy includes hydropower, biomass and wind energy. The air circulates from cold to warm areas producing winds, as the sun heats the earth.
Which statement best explains why different areas of the Earth have different amounts of heat energy?
Different parts of the Earth get different amounts of solar(heat) energy.
Global climate and weather patterns are driven by differences in the amount of heat energy in different areas of the Earth. Which statement best explains why different areas of the Earth have differen?
Different regions of the Earth receive different amounts of solar energy.

Why do different areas on earths surface receive different amounts of solar radiation?
Because the Earth is tilted side ways.-YAMII ;)
What affects the amount of direct solar energy at different areas of the earth?
the rotation and tilt
Why does the hemisphere receive different amounts of solar energy at different times?
In The Online world It Says That, "Because The Earth is tilted and it rotates."
How does earth's surface affect duration of insolation?
When Earth revolves around the sun different areas will get different amounts of insolation. For example, in the Northern Hemisphere our winter days are shorter and summers are longer.
How are different seasons caused?
Seasons are caused by earth's tilt on it's axis. As earth revolves around the sun, it's tilt causes different amounts of sunlight to reach the surface in certain areas. That's what causes the seasons.
At what times of the year do both of earth's hemisphere receive the same amount of energy from the sun?
The sun emits different amounts of energy all the time, however the hemispheres receive equal amounts of SUNLIGHT on the Equinoxes (approx. September 21 and March 21).

How does Earth axis affect seasons?
Since Earth is tilted on its axis and is revolving around the sun, some places on Earth get an indirect and direct amounts of sunlight and energy than others, therefore causing different seasons.
Why do different areas of Earth receive different amounts of solar radiation?
1) The angle at which the sunlight hits the ground (more acute as you approach the poles. 2) The variable length of "day". 3) Terrine, the planet is not smooth.
