Question

Which of the following is not true during Northern Hemisphere summer? Sunlight strikes the ground at a steeper angle in the Northern Hemisphere than it does in the Southern Hemisphere. The Sun follows a longer and higher path through the Northern Hemisphere sky than it does through the Southern Hemisphere sky. Noontime shadows are longer in the Northern Hemisphere than in the Southe

Answer 1

Noontime shadows are longer in the Northern Hemisphere than in the South

Step-by-step explanation:

• The angle that the sun's rays make with the earth depends on the latitude and altitude. As the amount of solar radiation reaching the earth is 90 degrees over the as smaller the angle the more is the intensity of heat.

• This fluctuation is seen in temperature and seasonal patterns The Sun in the Northern hemisphere sky is made a more steep angle with the ground a but the sunlight is equal for the north and southern hemisphere.

• The time of the day is thus an important factor in latitudinal heat distribution.
