Question

Areas that receive the greatest amount of solar energy during the year are closest to the equator. This refers to the dominant sun angle through the year that maximizes the warming effect

a) overhead, 90 degrees
b) at an angle, 45 degrees
c) spread out low angle, 15 degrees

Answer 1

Answer: a Overhead, 90 degrees

Explanation:

Near the equator, the sun's rays hit Earth at close to a 90-degree angle. This means that the sun's energy is concentrated within a small surface area and results in warm temperatures at the equator.
