Why do different parts of Earths surface receive different amounts of energy from the sun?

The higher the latitude the greater the thickness of atmosphere through which the sun's radiation has to pass, hence the lese energy reaching the ground.

How does the rain change the Earth's surface?
Rain changes the earths surface by breaking down limestone to form different shapes.
What theory states that earths crust and the rigid upper mantle move in different directions rates over earths surface?
Plate tectonics.
How does weathering and erosion shape earths surface?
Weathering and erosion shape earths surface by changing earths surface by having extreme forces that change earth.
What is the process that breaks up rock on earths surface?
weathering breaks rocks on earths surface
Do cirrus clouds form near or far from earths surface?
They form far above the earths surface.
Why do different areas on earths surface receive different amounts of solar radiation?
Because the Earth is tilted side ways.-YAMII ;)
What makes the season change?
because of earths tilt (axis)different amounts of sunlight hit different places at different times that's the answer
Why do the poles receive the less solar energy than the equator does?
Because the middle of the earths surface is the hottest on earth and the equator is right in the middle and the poles is at the end of the earths surfaces
Where is earths surface heated more south pole or north pole?
it is different in different points of the year.
What percent of the earths surface is the US?
100
How does the rain change the Earth's surface?
Rain changes the earths surface by breaking down limestone to form different shapes.
How much of earths oceans cover earths surface?
70% or 80% of water covers the earths surface
What theory states that earths crust and the rigid upper mantle move in different directions rates over earths surface?
Plate tectonics.
Does the outer core cover earths surface?
No the crust covers earths surface
Why are map projecters needed?
to draw the earths surface.
What forces below earth surface shape landforms?
The tectonic plates below earths surface shape earths landforms
Why are there are almost no extrusive ultra basic rocks in earths crust?
There are almost no extrusive rocks on the earths surface because they are all under the earths surface. They are mainly lower than the earths surface.
