The equator receives more direct sunlight compared to other parts of the Earth because of its location where the Earth's curvature is widest, resulting in more concentrated solar energy. This concentrated sunlight heats up the surface area near the equator, making it hot. Additionally, the equatorial region has a consistently high angle of incidence of sunlight throughout the year, leading to warmer temperatures.
