During which season do the suns rays hit the tropic of Capricorn?
The sun's rays hit the Tropic of Capricorn during the Southern Hemisphere's summer season, which occurs around December 21st each year.
How does the angle at which the Suns rays strike the earth affect the temperature at earth surface?
If the sun's rays hit the Earth's surface at a direct spot, which is usually around the equator, that area would be the warmest. Any area that is far away from the sun's rays is usually cold.
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.
How is the slant of the rays related to the seasons?
The slant rays relate to the seasons because the direct rays shine right on a spot and that makes summer. But as the earth tilts the rays are not as strong and not as bright so if its not a direct its slanted which gives it different seasons.!!
Why do areas farthest from the equator have the coldest climates?
The further south or north from the equator, the shallower the angle of the sun's rays hitting the earth's surface. This means that the rays travel through the atmosphere further and so have time to cool. The sun's rays hit the equator dead on, concentrated, but they hit the North and South pole at an angle, so the heat is spread out over a larger area.
Why do you have tropic of cancer 23.5north?
the furthest north the suns rays hit perpendicular to the earth
What angle will the suns rays most directly hit the earth?
the equater A+ 90 degrees
Why is it warm by the equator line?
The suns rays and heat hit it directly
What happens if the suns pulse hit earth?
it will destroy earths atmosphere and the heat of it penetrates one mile and kills all of the people on earth
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
What the affects the angle at which the suns rays hit earth?
The light from the sun travels in a straight line, and we can assume the light rays to be parellel. The angle of incidence on the earths rounded surface depends on where you are on the earth and what time it is. Mid-day on the equator and the rays would hit the ground straight on. Further to the north or south, or later/earlier in the day and the light rays would hit at more of angle. The rays would also have to penitrate more of the earths atmosphere as the angle increases, which takes more `strength` out of the sun.
How do poison dart frogs get energy from the sun?
the suns rays hit them and it makes energy for the frog your answer here...
What kind of ray hit the earth?
Many Rays hit the Earth but the most are UV rays because the Earth is always in the Sun's path so...yea
Where do the Suns rays hit Earths surface nearly at right angles?
The Sun's rays can hit Earth's surface at a right angle to the surface, depending on the season, anywhere between the tropics (i.e., between 23.5 degrees north and 23.5 degrees south), at noon, when the Sun is highest in the sky.
Where do the suns rays hit on June 21?
The sun's rays hit 50% of the Earth continuously ... 24/7/365. They can only hit perpendicular ... straight down ... on places that are within about 23.5 degrees of the equator, north and south. That's the only region on Earth where the sun can ever be directly over your head. That whole "belt" around the Earth's middle is called the "Tropics". On June 21, the sun is as far north as it can get, appearing directly overhead for people at 23.5 degrees north of the equator, whenever it happens to be Noon where each of them is.
Why do you get a sunburn when you lay in the sun too long?
because of the suns strong UV rays The rays hit your body and it is so hot it burns you and you have sun burn. :)
Do the suns rays fall more directly on Ontario or on Florida?
If I am interpreting the question correctly, they fall more directly on Florida. If you imagine sun rays as arrows pointing directly from the sun to the earth, when they hit Ontario, they are at an angle because earth is a sphere. They hit florida more directly because florida lies closer to the equator, which is more perpendicular to the sun.
