| 10 mm equals 1 ___ | CM |
| when referring to 12.1 what is the length of the ling segment for point A | 10mm |
| when referring to 12.1 what is the length of the ling segment for point B | 18mm |
| the amount of solar radiation received at any particular place on Earth, on any given day, is determined by the sun's ___ | intensity and duration |
| when referring to 12.2: when measuring the total width of incoming rays from point x to point y : what is the total width in CM | 8 |
| when referring to 12.2: when measuring the total width of incoming rays from point x to point y : what is the total width in MM | 80 |
| when referring to 12.2: assuming the total width of the incoming rays from point x to point y equals 100% of the solar radiation that is intercepted by earth: what would each CM equal ___% | 12.5% (1/8=.125 x 100=12.5) |
| when referring to 12.2: assuming the total width of the incoming rays from point x to point y equals 100% of the solar radiation that is intercepted by earth: what would each MMequal ___% | 1.25%(1/80=.0125 x 100=1.25) |
| what percentage of the total incoming radiation is concentrated in each of the following zones? 0 degrees- 30 degrees=___mm=____% | 40mm & 50% ( 40/80=.5 x 100=50%) |
| what percentage of the total incoming radiation is concentrated in each of the following zones? 30 degrees-60 degrees=____mm=___% | 30mm & 37.5% (30/80=.375 x 100=37.5%) |
| what percentage of the total incoming radiation is concentrated in each of the following zones? 60 degrees-90 degrees=___mm=___% | 10mm & 12.5% (10/80=.125 x 100=12.5%) |
| what is the general relation between the amount of radiation received in each 30 degree segment and the angle of the sun rays? | the lower sun angle the less solar radiation received. the greater sun angle that great solar radiation received. |
| why does earth create the unequal distribution of solar energy even though each zone represents an equal 30 degree segment of latitude | the curve of earth surface and the earth being sphere |
