Question

explain with the daigram , the effect of the spherical shape of the earth on the temperature at different latitude​

Answer 1

Explanation:

1. Sunrays travel in a straight line and are parallel to each other.

2. Due to the spherical shape of the Earth and the resultant curvature of the surface of the Earth , the sunrays occupy the larger or lesser areas in different parts of the earth.

3. This leads to unequal distribution of heat received from the sun , which results in decreasing temperature from the equator to the north and south poles.

4. Based on this distribution , the earth is divided into three zones :- Torrid zone, Temperate zone and Frigid zone.
