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).
Explanation:
Given:
v₀ = 0 m/s
a = 3 m/s²
t = 4 s
Find: Δx and v
Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²
Δx = (0 m/s) (4 s) + ½ (3 m/s²) (4 s)²
Δx = 24 m
v = at + v₀
v = (3 m/s²) (4 s) + 0 m/s
v = 12 m/s
The inner planets are closer to the Sun and are smaller and rockier. ... The outer planets are further away, larger and made up mostly of gas. The inner planets (in order of distance from the sun, closest to furthest) are Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars.Apr 23, 2014
Quantitative is how many or a measurement. You can take a measurement with:
a ruler
thermometer
weight scale
stop watch
