Has highest insolation?
Tropical
Describe the relationship between the angle of insolation and the rate of heating a surface.?
The angle of insolation into a surface is largest when the surface directly faces the Sun. That coincides with the temperature rising. So the angle of insolation goes up as the temperature goes up.
What is the duration of insolation on march 21?
The duration of insolation on March 21 is 12 hours daylight. The duration of insolation is dependent on temperature, season and latitude.
Which climate zone receives the highest insolation?
The tropical climate zone receives the highest insulation.
How would a lower angle of insolation affect the maximum temperature of a surface?
vv
How can you measure the angle of insolation without being able to see the sun's rays individully?
you can measure the angle of insolation by measuring the angle of the shadows that appear

What is the angle of insolation on the equator?
The angle of insolation affects the intensity of insolation directly. In other words, as the angle of insolation increases, so does the intensity of insolation because the Sun is directly overhead at Zenith, giving off direct, or vertical rays. The opposite happens when the angle of insolation decreases, causing a decrease in the intensity of insolation as well.
What is the duration of insolation on march 21?
The duration of insolation on March 21 is 12 hours daylight. The duration of insolation is dependent on temperature, season and latitude.
Where is the 90 degree angle of insolation on the equinoxes?
Directly on the equator.
Which climate zone receives the highest insolation?
The tropical climate zone receives the highest insulation.
What is the definition for angle of insolation?
The angle the sun's rays hit a given surface on Earth.And the angle is measured from the horizon up to the position of the sun
How would a lower angle of insolation affect the maximum temperature of a surface?
vv
At what time of day would the angle of the Sun cause insolation be the smallest?
Sunrise and sunset.
When is the angle of insolation greatest in New York?
Around June 21, the summer solstice.
What is the angle of insolation on the winter equinox?
The value will depend on the latitude, but relative to the rest of the year it is at a minimum.
