Sunlight strikes the Earth most directly around the equator.
It depends on the seasons.
At different times of year, the Sun can be overhead from the Tropic of Cancer to the tropic of Capricorn.
No, during summer in the Northern Hemisphere, the sun's rays are more direct because the Earth is tilted towards the sun. This results in longer daylight hours and higher sun angles, leading to warmer temperatures.
When the Sun's rays are more direct (closer to perpendicular to the surface of the ground at midday) it is hotter (some would call it "summer") When furthest from direct it is colder ("winter") between winter and summer there is spring and between summer and winter there is fall.
When the North Pole tilts away from the sun, the most direct rays strike the Southern Hemisphere, closer to the Tropic of Capricorn. This results in winter in the Northern Hemisphere and summer in the Southern Hemisphere.
The latitude where the vertical direct rays of the sun occur is the Tropic of Cancer at approximately 23.5 degrees North. This happens during the summer solstice in the Northern Hemisphere around June 21st each year.
when it is the afternoon, the sun will be at it's very peak and the sun's rays will be in a certain area, so it would be hotter. when it is setting/rising, the sun will be at an angle and the rays will be spread out and not as effective, thus the heat will spread and not warm a certain area. (take a flashlight and shine it on a table from the top. see how the rays are directed to a certain area? then try it at angles, see how it's spread out?) hope this helped!
The direct rays of the sun are rays from the sun that hit a certain area.
The equator receives direct rays from sun. It is present in front of sun.
direct rays are from the sun and indirect rays are from something else, like it was reflected or something(ex:the moon. It bounces the sun's rays) AKT♥
The northern hemisphere receives fewer direct rays from the sun in January.
A direct rays is when the Sun's light hits the specified part of Earth that you are observing at an exact angle of 900 . This means that the Sun's rays are perpendicular to the Earth; Direct rays compared to indirect rays are one of the factors for the occurrence of seasons on Earth.
No, during summer in the Northern Hemisphere, the sun's rays are more direct because the Earth is tilted towards the sun. This results in longer daylight hours and higher sun angles, leading to warmer temperatures.

On the equinoxes, the sun's direct rays fall on the equator. This causes day and night to be of equal length all over the world.

Summer
your everything to me
No it does not. Earth's seasons are affected by Earth's tilt. The earth is tilted 23.5 degrees so seasons are created by the sun's direct rays hitting different parts of the earth. Summer in the northern hemisphere starts when the sun's direct rays hit the tropic of cancer. winter occurs in the northern hemisphere when the sun's direct rays hit the tropic of capricorn. fall and spring begin when the sun's direct rays are at the equator. (By the way, summer in the norther hemisphere occurs when the earth is farthest from the sun)
