What happens to temperature as the angle at which the sun's rays strike the earth's surface increases. As the angle decreases. What happens to the length of the shadows at the same time?

As the angle at which the sun's rays strike the Earth's surface increases, the temperature tends to decrease. As the angle decreases, temperature tends to increase. At the same time, as the sun's angle decreases, shadows appear longer because the light is being cast at a greater angle.

What is apical angle in cone?

The apex angle is the angle in a cone that the apex, or point, of the cone takes. This is measured from two opposite sides of the cone, which is found by drawing a line from the apex to the center of the circular base, then drawing a plane through this line and using the lines of the plane's intersection of the cone to measure the angle.


Which eccentricities represent most elongated ellispe?

The elongation of the ellipse increases as the eccentricity increases from 0 to 1. For eccentricity zero it's a circle, and with eccentricity 1 it's a parabola. They are all a class of curve called a conic section. If you can find a torch (flashlight) that produces a conical beam, shine it directly at the wall and you get a circle. Shine it at an inclined angle and you get an ellipse. If the angle is increased so that one side of the cone is parallel to the wall, you see a parabola on the wall. Any more of an angle and you get the 4th conic section, a hyperbola.


How and why shadows vary?

Shadows vary in size and intensity based on the angle and intensity of the light source, as well as the distance between the object and the surface casting the shadow. The shape of the object also influences the shape of the shadow. Additionally, the presence of multiple light sources or reflective surfaces can create multiple shadows or alter their appearance.

What would happen if the shape of the analemma's ecliptic angle were to increase?

If the shape of the analemma's ecliptic angle were to increase, it would indicate a change in the Earth's axial tilt or orbital eccentricity. This could lead to more pronounced variations in solar declination throughout the year, affecting seasonal patterns and climate. Such changes might alter the intensity and duration of sunlight received at different latitudes, potentially impacting ecosystems and weather systems globally. Overall, an increased ecliptic angle would signify a significant shift in Earth's relationship with the Sun.


As the angle of incidence increases what does the angle of reflection do?

The angle of reflection increases also.


What is the name of the shape with no acute or obtuse and reflex interior angle?

There are two possible angles left: a right angle (90°) and a straight angle (180°)· For the former the shape would be a rectangle For the latter the shape would be a circle. (as the angle increases towards 180°, the length of each side decreases towards zero, so that at the limit of 180°, a circle is formed).


Does the sine of an angle decreases as the angle increases from 0 degrees to 90 degrees?

No. As the angle increases from zero to 90 degrees,its sine increases from zero to '1'.


If the angle of incidence increases and the indexes of refraction stay the same what happens to the angle of refraction?

The angle if refraction also increases.


What is the definition for interior angle?

An interior angle of a 2-dimensional plane shape is an angle on its perimeter that is facing the enclosed area of the shape.An interior angle of a 2-dimensional plane shape is an angle on its perimeter that is facing the enclosed area of the shape.An interior angle of a 2-dimensional plane shape is an angle on its perimeter that is facing the enclosed area of the shape.An interior angle of a 2-dimensional plane shape is an angle on its perimeter that is facing the enclosed area of the shape.


Why does the angle of reflection increase as the angle of incidence increases?

As the angle of incidence increases, the angle of reflection also increases due to the law of reflection, which states that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. This is because light behaves in a predictable manner when reflecting off a surface, and the angles are always equal in relation to the surface normal.


What is the shape on an single angle?

The shape depends on the angle. Need more information.


What shape has an angle of 55 degrees?

A triangle with a angle of 55o might also have angles 25o and 100o. There isn't a regular shape with an angle 55o (a shape where each angle is 55o).


Does extension decrease the angle between two bones?

Flexion decreases the angle between two bones in a joint. Extension increases that angle.


What two things does the analemma show?

The solar analemma is an elongated figure of eight. There are three main parameters which define the shape - obliquity, eccentricity and the angle between the apse line and the line of solstice. The distance from the node, along the north-south lobes show the latitude [on Earth] at which the sun is overhead. This is a measure of the earth's axial tilt.The distance from the vertical axis - in the east-west direction - is a measure of the difference between the time as shown by the sun's position and clock time. This is a measure of the eccentricity of the earth's orbit.


What is the shape when the interior angle is 175 degrees?

A shape with an interior angle of 175 degrees is typically a convex polygon with at least one angle measuring that amount. In general, polygons with such large interior angles tend to have more sides, as the sum of the interior angles increases with the number of sides. For example, a polygon with 12 sides (dodecagon) can have one angle measuring 175 degrees. However, a shape with an interior angle of 175 degrees would not be a simple triangle or quadrilateral, as their maximum interior angles are less than 180 degrees.
