Question

At which of the following angles will the sunlight received at a location on Earth spread out over the largest area?
1- 90°
2- 70°
3- 40°
4- 10°

Answer 1

Based on the choices provided I would go with 10 degrees.

and for anyone who comes crossed this i just want to say great job finishing mod 6 hope you do well in segment 2 exam :), flvs people know what I'm talking about ;)

Answer 2

The angle at which the sunlight received at a location on Earth spread out over the largest area is 10°. Because the intensity of the sunlight striking the ground depends on the sun's angle in the sky. so, option 4 is correct.

Intensity of sunlight

• When the sun is at a lower angle, the same amount of energy is spread over a larger area, so the heat is less.
• When the sun is at a higher angle, the intensity is high as the sun's rays are perpendicular to the earth's surface, so the energy spreads over a small area and the heat is too high in that region.

Intensity for the given angles

The angle of 10° is smaller than all the other angles 90°, 70°, and 45°

As we know if the angle is smaller then the sunlight will spread out over a larger area, at 10° the sunlight will spread over a large area.

Thus, at 10° the sunlight received at a location on Earth spread out over the largest area. so, option 4 is correct.
