Geography
1 answer:
Gelneren [198K]3 years ago
7 0

1.Africa’s population as a whole is projected to grow very rapidly in the coming 85 years, from 1.2 billion today to 4.4 billion people in 2100 — an increase of 266%.

2.At the end of the current century, Africa’s population will be equal to the total world population back in 1980.

3.By 2100, Africa will — if UN projections bear out — account for almost 40% of the world’s 11.2 billion population.

4.Despite a falling population in China, Asia’s overall population is projected to rise from 4.4 billion today to 4.9 billion in 2100, an increase of 11%.

5.While Asia will retain its status as the most populous region, Africa is catching up. Today, Africa’s population is one-quarter the size of Asia’s.

6.By 2100, Africa will have a population that is just 10% smaller than Asia’s.

7.Nigeria will move from being the world’s seventh most-populous country today to its third most-populous country in 2100 (behind only India and China).

8.And while Nigeria is the only African nation among the top 10 today, it will be one of five in 2100.

Averaged over the summer months, even though there are more hours of daylight at the Arctic Circle (66 ½°) compared to at 40° la
levacccp [35]

Answer:

A. At the Arctic Circle, the sun’s rays travel through a thicker layer of atmosphere, reducing the amount of solar energy reaching the ground.

C. At the Arctic Circle, solar energy reaching the ground is spread over a smaller area, reducing the intensity of solar energy reaching the ground.

D. At the Arctic Circle, the daytime position of the sun in the sky is lower (closer to the horizon), reducing the intensity of solar energy reaching the ground.

Explanation:

  • The arctic circle is the northernmost part of the world and is defined by the latitude of 66° 33' N the temperature of the warmest months in July and is below 10 ° C and thus has cool and cold summers.
  • <u>Thus rays of the sun have to enter or travel through the thick layers of the atmosphere being at a height altitude and less sunlight is received at the poles and hence the small area gets insolation</u>.
  • <u>Thus the day time position of the sun in lower latitudes of 40 to 60 degrees than it's in after noon time is more intense.</u>
