Oblique rays hit the Earth's surface at an angle, spreading the same amount of sunlight over a larger area, resulting in less intensity. Vertical rays, on the other hand, hit the surface perpendicularly, concentrating the sunlight on a smaller area, leading to higher intensity. This difference in intensity affects the amount of heat and light received at the surface.
What else can I help you with?
Bending light rays so that they focus on the retina is called?
The bending of light rays so they focus on the retina is called refraction.
Why can the vertical velocity or component can be the same but the angle can be different?
The vertical velocity or component refers to the speed at which an object moves up or down. This can remain the same even if the angle at which the object is moving changes. The angle of motion is independent of the vertical velocity, so it is possible for the two to vary separately.
What refracts light rays so they diverge?
A concave lens refracts light rays so they diverge. This type of lens is thinner at the center and thicker at the edges, causing light rays passing through it to spread out.
When light strikes some objects the light bounces off of it these light rays are?
I believe you want to ask: what are the so-called "bounced-off" rays of light called? If so, the simplest answer would be: "reflections".
Are electromagnetic rays present in a dark room?
No, electromagnetic rays are not present in a dark room. Electromagnetic rays are forms of light, so in a dark room there is no visible light present.
Why April month so hot in southern India?
Southern India lies in the equatorial belt. It receives almost vertical rays from the sun throughout april. These rays have a greater heating effect than oblique rays. Hence, south India is very hot in the month of April.
Are vertical angles coplanar?
Yes, the opposite rays of vertical angles are always coplanar, so the angles are as well.
Why do vertical rays warm the air more than slanting rays under same condition?
Vertical rays are more direct and concentrated, so they transfer more energy per unit area to the air. Slanting rays are spread out over a larger area, which reduces the amount of energy transferred to the air. This is why vertical rays warm the air more than slanting rays under the same conditions.
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
Vertical rays can only occur between what degrees?
Only between 23.5 degrees on each side of the equator. The earth is tilted at 23.5 degrees, so the sun's vertical rays will only oscillate between those latitudes throughout the year. They are at those extremes during the solstices.
Why does have so many hours of darkness during winter?
During winter, some locations experience more hours of darkness because the Earth's axis is tilted away from the sun, causing the sun's rays to hit the Northern Hemisphere at a more oblique angle. This results in shorter days and longer nights, leading to more hours of darkness.
What is the Scientific name for oblique?
The term "oblique" can refer to various contexts, so it isn't a specific scientific name. However, in anatomy, "oblique" often describes muscles that are positioned at an angle, such as the external oblique and internal oblique muscles. If you're referring to a specific organism or concept, please provide more context for a precise answer.
During which month are the days longer than nights in the Philippines?
The shifting vertical rays cross it twice in a year so the length of day and night does not change much
Why horizontal dropping is faster than oblique?
The very question is not precise. What is meant by faster? Whether we drop horizontally or obliquely the vertical component of the velocity alone changes with time and that too controlled by the acceleration due to gravity. The horizontal component would remain the same through out the flight. If you mean the time of falling on the ground, of course horizontal projection will be sooner than the oblique one. This is because the body has to go up and come down. Hence the time of flight will be double that in case horizontal projection.
Is a 45 degree angle an oblique angle?
An oblique angle is any angle not 90 degrees or a multiple of 90 degrees. So 45 degrees is an oblique angle. A 45 degree angle is also an acute angle (anything less than 90 degrees).
Need a picture of an oblique pyramid?
A graphic of an oblique pyramid can't be shown on Answers.com, due to formatting restrictions. But, imagine if you could move the very top of the Great Pyramid of Gaza, and move it towards the rear, so the top is no longer exactly above the centre of the base, that is an oblique pyramid. There are many pictures of oblique pyramids available on the internet.
What are the difference between a right prism and an oblique prism?
In a right prism, the lateral sides are perpendicular to the bases and so all of them are rectangular.In an oblique prism, the lateral sides are not perpendicular to the bases so that some of them (at least) are non-rectangular parallelograms.In a right prism, the lateral sides are perpendicular to the bases and so all of them are rectangular.In an oblique prism, the lateral sides are not perpendicular to the bases so that some of them (at least) are non-rectangular parallelograms.In a right prism, the lateral sides are perpendicular to the bases and so all of them are rectangular.In an oblique prism, the lateral sides are not perpendicular to the bases so that some of them (at least) are non-rectangular parallelograms.In a right prism, the lateral sides are perpendicular to the bases and so all of them are rectangular.In an oblique prism, the lateral sides are not perpendicular to the bases so that some of them (at least) are non-rectangular parallelograms.
