What else can I help you with?
What time of year do the suns rays reach farthest north or south?
solstice
Is the southern limit of the suns direct rays is marked by the tropic of cancer?
The tropic of Cancer is 23° North of the Equator. It represents the point where the Sun can be directly overhead. If you are any further north, the Sun can not be overhead. The corresponding feature in the southern hemisphere is the Tropic of Capricorn. As to the Sun's direct rays, they can be anywhere from the South Pole to the North Pole. Those two points and everything in between receives the Sun's direct rays at some time during the year.
Which of the earth's poles receives the most direct rays from sun?
The distribution of incoming solar radiation during the course of a year is exactly equal at both poles, and neither of them ever receives any 'direct' rays.
Does the land and water near the earths poles ever receive the direct rays of sun?
Yes - for half the year.
Why do places in tropical latitudes close to the equator have hot weather year-round?
They get the most direct rays from the sun.
If you live in New Zealand during what day of the year would the suns rays be most direct?
December 21 or 22, coinciding with the Winter Solstice in the northern hemisphere.
What time of year do the suns rays reach farthest north or south?
solstice
What two times of the year do the suns rays fall on the equator?
21 March and 21 September
Why is it hot at the equater?
The Equator is the point around the earth where the distance the suns rays have to travel through the atmosphere to reach the Earth is the shortest. At that point it shines almost directly down all year around.
Is the southern limit of the suns direct rays is marked by the tropic of cancer?
The tropic of Cancer is 23° North of the Equator. It represents the point where the Sun can be directly overhead. If you are any further north, the Sun can not be overhead. The corresponding feature in the southern hemisphere is the Tropic of Capricorn. As to the Sun's direct rays, they can be anywhere from the South Pole to the North Pole. Those two points and everything in between receives the Sun's direct rays at some time during the year.
Where on earth do suns rays shine at the most diect angle?
The sun's rays shine most directly at locations near the equator. These areas receive more direct sunlight throughout the year, leading to warmer temperatures and more consistent daylight hours.
When does land and water receives the direct rays of the sun throughout the year?
Equator.
How many times will the Suns perpendicular rays cross Earths Equator between March 1 of one year and March 1 of the next year?
Twice.
What latitude receives the most direct rays of the sun year around?
There's no place where the angle of the sun's rays doesn't change. But the place thataverages the most direct rays for the longest time in the course of a year is the equator.That's zero latitude.That's probably why it's so warm there.
Why does the temperature change from month to month?
Temperature changes from month to month due to variations in the angle of sunlight, Earth's tilt, and distance from the sun. These factors affect the amount of heat and light received at different times of the year, leading to the fluctuation in temperatures.
Which of these is the time of year when the sun's most direct rays reach farthest north or south?
solstice
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
