Why is solar energy not distributed evenly over earth? Give at least THREE factors/reasons why.

Biology
1 answer:
Arisa [49]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

  • The earth is round, meaning the part of it that is closer to the sun, will get more solar energy than the other parts which will get less. (Don't believe me? Just try placing a circle on a flat line, and see if you can get it to evenly touch.)
  • The earth is constantly rotating on it's axis, and since its axis is slightly tilted, the two poles will get different amounts of solar energy at different times. While one pole will be closer the other will be farther away, until the earth rotates of course.
  • The earth doesn't revolve around the Sun evenly, meaning instead of a perfectly even circle with equal space around the sun, it's more of an elliptical shape, or basically an oval. So this would mean the earth would be slightly further away from the sun as it completes its orbit.

I'm not an expert, nor am I absolutely sure if this is right, but I hope my answer helps.

P.S. Sorry if it's wrong

To measure the population density of monarch butterflies occupying a particular park, 100 butterflies are captured, marked with
Sav [38]

Answer:

Given merely 40 butterflies were marked, assumed that there were multiple captures of both marked and unmarked butterflies, that the butterflies caught in traps were on the loose to be caught again. There are two mathematical solutions for this, both yielding the same answer which is 100. 

• First, to each marked butterfly was taken twice (40 marked X2 = 80 captured) then of the unmarked butterflies the 120 captured must relate to 60 actual butterflies. In which 40 + 60 = 100. 

• Secondly, by means of ratios in which 80/200 = 40/X. In this case X also = 100 that will result to the estimated size of the population of wilson park is 100.
