The answer is 25 degree, because when the sun is directly overhead, its rays strike the earth at a 90 degree angle. The closer to 90 degrees the rays are, the more concentrated they are and the greater is the heat they produce on the earth's surface. The solar heat reach the surface of the earth becomes less intense as the angles of the rays decreases.

Areas near the North or South Pole, receive sunlight at a smaller angle, because of Earth’s spherical shape. At smaller angles, the sunlight is less intense because it spreads out over more area, and temperature are cooler, so is 25

Which information is needed to construct a geomagnetic time scale?
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

the magnetic direction of rocks along the surface of Earth and the age of rocks along the surface of Earth

Explanation:

The earth's magnetic field or geomagnetic field is believed to originate from the movement of molten iron and nickel in the outer core.

During a period in which the earth magnetic field is normal, crystallising magnetic minerals in magma records the orientation of the prevailing geomagnetic field. At other times when the field reverses and the magnetic field orientation changes, magnetic minerals in cooling magma stores this record.

To create a geomagnetic time scale, geologists can assign absolute ages to the records of these paleomagnetic anomalies which are the reversals. The rock is dated using radiometric techniques and each period of reversal is ascribed an absolute geologic age. Therefore, the magnetic direction of rocks along the surface of Earth and the age of rocks along the surface of Earth helps to build the geomagnetic time scale of the earth.
