Where do the Sun’s rays hit Earth’s surface nearly at right angles?

Geography

Answer:

Between the Equator and the Tropical Capricorn, and the Equator and the Tropical Cancer

Explanation:

The sun rays don't fall on the surface of the Earth at the same angle across all of it. The reason for this is the shape of the Earth, as it is a circular space body, or rather an ellipsoid.

The Equator is the place on Earth that is the most exposed to the sun rays throughout the year, which is why the climate is constant and without changes in this part of the world.  The Equator always gets the sun rays at right angle, or very near the right angle.

The northern limit to where the sun rays fall at right angle is the Tropical Cancer, which gets the sun rays at right angle during the June solstice.

The southern limit to where the sun rays fall at right angle is the Tropical Capricorn, which gets the sun rays at right angle during the December solstice.

Which of the following makes the cascade mountains a good place for mining? Select all that apply.
Alex777 [14]

<u>Answer</u>: e) Volcanic activity in the region leaves behind valuable minerals.

<u />

<u>Explanation</u>: Volcanic activity has played an important role in the creation of the Cascade Mountains as they were originally created through the subduction of two continental plates.

It is well known that gold deposists are often found through volcanic systems. Water heated by volcanoes will become very acid and thus dissolve surrounding rocks. This water that will contain gold and other metals will then follow fractures through the bedrock towards the surface. In time, these will turn into gold veins or lodes.
