Air temperature depends mostly on the angle of what?
Air temperature depends mostly on the angle of the sun's rays. The angle of the sun affects how much heat is received by a particular area on Earth's surface, which in turn impacts the temperature of the air above it. The angle of the sun changes throughout the day and with the changing seasons, influencing air temperatures accordingly.
What is mainly responsible for the unequal heating of earth's surface?
The unequal heating of Earth's surface is mainly caused by variations in the angle and intensity of the sun's rays due to the curvature of the Earth, resulting in the equator receiving more direct sunlight than the poles. This leads to differences in temperature and pressure, driving atmospheric circulation and weather patterns.
Where do the rays of the sun strike most directly on the earth the equator at the poles in the temperate zone or over the oceans?
The rays of the sun strike most directly on the equator, resulting in more intense heat and sunlight in that region. As you move towards the poles, the angle of the sun's rays becomes more oblique, leading to less direct sunlight and lower temperatures. In the temperate zone, the angle of the sun's rays varies seasonally, leading to differences in sunlight intensity. Over oceans, the angle of the sun's rays can also vary but tends to be more consistent compared to over land areas.
What happens to temperature as the angle at which the suns rays strike the earths surface decreases?
it decreases... that's why the two poles are the coldest places on earth... however, considering the earth is a sphere the angle you are talking about is relative to the point on earth which you are referring to... therefore, there will always be a point on the earth's surface where the suns rays are hitting at exactly 90 degrees...
How does the angle of which the suns rays strike the earth affect the temp at the earths surface?
The angle at which the sun's rays strike the Earth's surface affects the intensity of the sunlight spread over a larger or smaller area, impacting the surface temperature. When the sun's rays hit the Earth at a higher angle (closer to perpendicular), the energy is concentrated over a smaller area, leading to higher temperatures. Conversely, when the angle is lower (closer to parallel), the energy is spread over a larger area, resulting in lower temperatures.
What happens to temperature as the angle at which the sun's rays strike the earths surface decreases?
Usually, as the angle of incidence of the sun's rays decrease (i.e. when the sun is nearer to the horizon than to the zenith) the temperature decreases.
How does total internal reflection depend on the angle of incidence of lights rays?

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.
Can a angle make two rays?
Two intersecting rays form an angle. Without two rays you do not have an angle.
What is true of an angle of light rays coming into an object and the angle of light rays reflected off an object?
Reflected rays are equal to the angle of incoming rays.
What happens to the temperature as the angle at which the Sun's Rays strike earth's surface increases as the angle decreases what happens to the length of shadows at the same time?
pie
What are sides of angle called?
two rays make up an angle, so the rays are the sides of the angle.
The point at which the rays of an angle intersect?
The point at which the rays of an angle intersect is the vertex.
What happens to temperature as the angle at which the sun rays strike?
The seasonal tilting of the Earth away from the Sun, causes the sunlight to strike the Earth at an angle that means the distance travelled is longer and cooling is increased. This means that Winter occurs in the Northern Hemisphere, and Summer in the Southern Hemisphere, and visa versa when the Earth tilts towards the Sun.
What rays are of the angle?
They are the sides of an angle.
How does total internal reflection depend on the angle of incidence of light rays?
Total internal reflection occurs when the angle of incidence is greater than the critical angle. The critical angle is the angle at which the refracted ray would be at 90 degrees to the normal. If the angle of incidence is less than the critical angle, the light ray will be refracted out of the material.
