Why do the poles receive more solar energy then the equator does?
They don't. The equator receives more solar energy per area unit than the poles do.
Why do poles receive less solar energy then the equator does?
The poles receive less solar energy then the equator does because the radiation from the sun has to pass through much more atmosphere to reach the poles than to reach the equator. During that transit, more of the energy is scattered on the path to the poles, and less reaches the ground there.
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.
How do you store solar energy?
The solar planar cells on the earth receive the solar energy from sun and this energy can be stored in batteries
What is the belt of maximum solar energy input to Earth?
the equator
Why do the poles receive more solar energy then the equator does?
They don't. The equator receives more solar energy per area unit than the poles do.
Which region receive the most solar energy equatoria or polar regions?
The region on earth that receives the most solar energy is the equator. This is because the equator is the closest to the sun.
What region of the earth near the equator receive the most solar energy?
The Atacama desert
Why do poles receive less solar energy then the equator does?

What region of the earth Near the equator receives the most solar energy-?
All regions near the equator receive about the same amount of solar energy but the Atacama desert gets the most.
What region of the earth near the equator receives the most energy?
All regions near the equator receive about the same amount of solar energy but the Atacama desert gets the most.
What latitude is the largest input of solar energy on earth?
The regions close to the equator receive most energy from the Sun. The reason is that for observers in such regions, the Sun is higher in the sky.
What is true about the regions closer to the equator?
The regions closer to the equator are hotter and more moist than those further from the equator. They receive more solar energy than the 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.

The poles, on the other hand, are far away from the equator, and the sun.
How do areas of the Earth near the equator which receive large amounts of solar energy lead to increased rainfall?
Increased solar energy causes more water to evaporate from bodies of water such as lakes, rivers, and oceans. This evaporated water turns into clouds, and falls back to the earth as rain. This solar energy also drives convection which helps to distribute the moisture and rainfall around world.
Why do the poles receive the less solar energy than the equator does?
Because the middle of the earths surface is the hottest on earth and the equator is right in the middle and the poles is at the end of the earths surfaces
Is solar energy only available to those living on the equator?
No. I live in California and have solar panels on my house. I am not on the equator.
