Why are places with high temperature found at equator?

Answer 1

The earth's temperature is hotter at the equator and colder at the poles because of the difference in the angle of the sun's rays. Since the earth is round, the sun's rays hit different areas at different angles; the higher the latitude the more slanted are the sun's rays. In tropical or lower latitude areas the sun stays more or less overhead throughout the year. Since direct rays provide more heat than rays at an angle, the tropics receive the most heat and have the warmest average temperatures.

Answer 2

The reasons have to do with the tilt of the earth and the angle of the sun shining on the earth. The equator is at 0 degrees Latitude, which means the sun will always shine on it during the daytime.

Answer 3

Because the sun's rays are near vertical throughout the year. This means that (a) they are spread over a smaller area and so warm the earth's surface to a greater extent, and (b) they have to travel through less of the earth's atmosphere and so less heat is lost in heating the atmosphere.

Answer 4

because the sun's rays are stronger in the equator and therefore it is hotter.

Answer 5

It's all because of the way the earth tilts. The equator is the part of the earth that is closest to the sun, and therefore it is the warmest.
