How do the different incline nation of the sun's rays cause different amount of heating
  • 1 answers

Meghna Thapar 4 years, 11 months ago

When the sun's rays strike Earth's surface near the equator, the incoming solar radiation is more direct (nearly perpendicular or closer to a 90˚ angle). Therefore, the solar radiation is concentrated over a smaller surface area, causing warmer temperatures. The sun's rays striking the earth at a small angle of inclination traverse more of atmosphere than rays striking at a high angle. Longer the path, greater the amount of scattering, reflection and absorption by the atmosphere which reduces the intensity of insolation at the surface.
