Here is your answer:
1. A alternating current is a current "is an electric current which periodically reverses direction." A direct current is a "<span>current which flows only in one direction."
2. They are alike because both are "they both are able to travel in different directions." How they are not alike is that a "alternating current travels in a reverse direction but a direct current can only travel in one direction each current."
Hope this helps!</span>
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
Latitude determines the duration of daylight hours.
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
- <em><u>The amount of daylight hours depends on the latitude and how Earth orbits the sun. </u></em>
- <em><u>The tilting of the earth as it orbits the sun leads to a variation of solar energy that changes with latitude which causes a seasonal variation in the intensity of sunlight reaching the surface and the number of hours of daylight.</u></em>
- Daylight hours are shortest in each hemisphere's winter. Between summer and winter solstice, the number of daylight hours decreases, and the rate of decrease is larger the higher the latitude.
