How do lines of latitude affect how direct or indirect the Sun’s rays are on the Earth?

The technical definition of latitude is the angular distance north or south from the earth's equator measured through 90 degrees. ... Locations at lower latitudes receive stronger and more direct sunlight than locations near the poles. Energy input from the sun is the main driving force in the atmosphere.



The Seasons at Different Latitudes
The seasonal effects are different at different latitudes on Earth. Near the equator, for instance, all seasons are much the same. Every day of the year, the Sun is up half the time, so there are approximately 12 hours of sunshine and 12 hours of night.



When we consider Latitude alone as a control, we know that the low latitudes (say from the Equator to approximately 30 degrees N/S) are the warmest across the year (on an annual basis).

Gnoma [55]

Answer:

a. stay the same for very long

Explanation:

It is rare for any motion to stay the same for a very long time. The force applied on a body causes changes in the magnitude of motion.

  • For motion to remain constant, there must not be a net force acting on the body
  • All the forces on the body must be balanced.
  • This is very hard to come by.
  • Motion changes very frequently.

6. What is the GPE of a 500g box of chocolates 2 m above the ground?
Alexus [3.1K]
GPE = mgh
m = mass=500g = 0.5kg
h= height = 2m
g = gravitational field strength, 9.8 near surface of earth
therefore GPE = 0.5*9.8*2 ( 0.5*2=1 so they cancel out), GPE = 9.8J
