What is the relation between Temperature and Latitude of a place ?
Answers
The relation between temperature and latitude is that latitudes divide the earth into different temperature zones namely the torrid zone , the temperate zone and the frigid zone .
As Torrid zone lies between the tropic of cancer and tropic of Capricorn . So , it gets the maximum amount of sunlight and gets sun rays directly as they fall in the very middle of the earth . So the places that fall between the tropics are extremely hot.
As Temperate zone lies between Tropic of cancer and Arctic circle in the north and Tropic of Capricorn and Antarctic circle in the South . So , it gets slanting sun rays of the sun as it is away from the equator . So , the places that fall in temperate zones have moderate temperature.
As frigid zone lies between the Arctic circle and North pole in the north and Antarctic circle and south pole in the south . So, it hardly gets any sunlight as it is at the very top namely the poles . So , the places that fall in frigid zone are extremely cold .
That's all
