What zone receives the most sunlight
Keith_Richards [23]

The 90-degree angle would be hotter since this is receiving the most direct sunlight concentrated in a smaller area. In areas at the equator, the angle of incoming rays from the Sun is perpendicular (90 degrees) to the Earth's surface during all days of the year. Such areas experience warm climates throughout the year

3. The greenhouse effect is driven by the fact that greenhouse gases are:
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

Good absorbers of longwave radiation and poor absorbers of shortwave radiation

Explanation:

Gases in the atmosphere such as carbon dioxide, water vapor, methane, nitrous oxide, ozone and some artificial chemicals such as chlorofluorocarbons absorb and re-radiate the sun's energy maintaining the Earth's temperature at around 33 degrees Celcius, this happens especially with infrared light that wants to go back to space, greenhouse gases are good at absorbing and emitting radiant energy within the thermal infrared range (range from about 700nm to 1mm), IR is considered long-wavelength radiation.

Considering this information we can assume greenhouse gases are good absorbers of longwave radiation and poor absorbers of shortwave radiation (such as UV or gamma rays)

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!
