Are sun rays different from normal white lights?

That depends on what "normal white lights" are. The rays of the sun contain most frequencies (colors) of light, and the sun's rays are considered to be pretty much "white light" by the physicist. There may be some slight "gaps" in the frequency spectrum of sunlight, and the "amounts" of the light at different frequencies vary, of course.


What kind of rays does the sun have?

The sun emits various types of rays, including visible light, ultraviolet (UV) rays, and infrared rays. These rays have different wavelengths and properties, with UV rays having the potential to cause skin damage and infrared rays providing heat.


What is a pronoun that can replace the words the sun's rays?

The pronouns that take the place of the noun phrase 'the sun's rays' are they as the subject of a sentence of a clause, and them as the object of a verb or a preposition.Examples:On a chilly day, I seek out the sun's rays. They chase away the chill. (subject of the second sentence)The sun's rays come through this window, so put the plant there to catch them. (direct object of the verb 'catch')


Why is the sun's intensity different at different area of the earth?

It depends on how much atmosphere it has to go through, the further away FM the equator you are the more the earth curves so the suns rays enter at an angle, meaning that it has to go through more atmosphere. Whereas on the equator the suns rays travel strait so there is less atmosphere to go though, make the suns rays more intense
