The correct answer would be rough texture and dark color (4).
On March 21, which is the spring equinox, the latitude that receives the highest angle of insolation is the equator (0 degrees latitude). During this time, the sun is directly overhead at the equator, leading to the most direct sunlight and maximum insolation. Locations at higher latitudes receive sunlight at a lower angle, resulting in less intense insolation.
Maximum duration of insolation occurs on the summer solstice (June 21). Duration of insolation is the hours of sunlight we receive on that given day in a given area. The summer solstice, or June 21, is when we have the most amount of sunlight on a day in the whole entire year so therefore; maximum duration of insolation is greatest on that day.

The zone that has the highest insolation is the Tropics, located near the Equator. This region receives the most direct sunlight throughout the year due to the angle of the Earth's tilt.
The region with the highest insolation is the Sahara Desert in Africa. This area receives some of the most intense sunlight on Earth due to its location near the equator and lack of cloud cover.

Solar panels that convert sunlight to electrical energy are an application of insolation.
The area on Earth that receives the most energy is the equator, as it receives direct sunlight year-round due to its position near the center of the sun's rays. This consistent exposure to sunlight results in high temperatures and a higher amount of solar energy being received.
Angle of insolation refers to the angle at which the sun's rays strike the Earth's surface. The angle of insolation affects the intensity of solar energy received at a particular location. A higher angle of insolation results in more concentrated sunlight, while a lower angle spreads the sunlight out over a larger area.
There is no 'why' because that statement is false. The equator is right in the CENTER of the tropics. As the sun wiggles back and forth between the edges of the tropics each year, the equator is the place that receives the MOST average insolation.
The area that receives the most direct rays of sun is the equator. This region experiences consistently high solar insolation throughout the year due to its position along the Earth's midsection, where sunlight strikes most directly.

The angle of insolation into a surface is largest when the surface directly faces the Sun. That coincides with the temperature rising. So the angle of insolation goes up as the temperature goes up.
Yes, the angle of insolation would vary on a flat Earth due to the curvature of the planet. Areas closer to the Sun's direct rays would have a higher angle of insolation, resulting in more concentrated and intense sunlight, while areas farther away would have a lower angle of insolation, leading to less direct and less intense sunlight.
