Answer:

latitude; direction

Explanation:

Folowing the lalitude of the Earth we observe that the sun’s rays are more intense at the equator and they become less intense as we aproach the poles. At the same time this intensity fluctuates during the seasons due to the Earth's tilted axis (23.5 degree angle), this makes that the hemisphere that is closer to the sun receives more sunlight than the opposing hemisphere.

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

Describe one way in which a young star is different from a protostar.
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

Both early protostars and young stars are formed from a clod of gas which collapses under gravity to form a star. Both types of star are mainly Hydrogen and some Helium. They would be 75% Hydrogen, 25% Helium with traces of Lithium. Young stars formed out of the remains of old stars would still be mainly Hydrogen. Another way to say it is Both types of star are mainly Hydrogen and some Helium. Early protostars would have been formed from the gasses that were created soon after the big bang. They would be 75% Hydrogen, 25% Helium with traces of Lithium. Young stars formed out of the remains of old stars would still be mainly Hydrogen.

How does a contracting protostar convert gravitational potential energy into thermal energy?
s2008m [1.1K]

The answer of how it is convert is the sun generates energy by slowly contracting in size; converting gravitational potential energy into thermal energy and this is called gravitational contraction.  Gravitational collapse is the narrowing of an astronomical object due to the effect of its own gravity, which tends to draw matter inward toward the center of gravity.

The frigid temperatures have allowed a lake to become ready for people to ice fish on it. What process has the lake undergone? ​
Burka [1]

Answer:

When the entire lake reaches 40 F, the surface water cools further, dropping below 40 F. Because this water is now less dense than the surrounding water, it will stay on the top and continue to cool. Once the surface water falls to 32 F, it freezes. The freezing then spreads downward into the lake and the ice thickens
