What is angle of insulation?
It is the angle at which the sun's rays hit the earth
Are shadows longer or shorter than your actual height?
it depends on where the sun is in the sky If the sun is at its highest point ur hsadows will be shorter but as the sun get slower your shadow will get longer
The top of a billboard is 40 feet above the ground What is the angle of elevation of the sun when the billboard casts a 30 foot shadow on level ground?
tan-1(40/30) = 53.13° Therefore, the sun is at a 53.13° angle of elevation.
What is an angle of separation?
"The angle of separation is the angle between lines originating from the eye of the observer toward two objects, such as a star-the Sun and the horizon." (quoted from Earth in space, a student guide and source book)
What is the relationship between latitude and the angle of the sun's rays?
They both have to do with whether or not people get sunlight or if they don't.
Why do shadows get longer and shorter?
Shadows change length during the day because as the earth rotates on its axis, the angle between the sun and any given point on the earth changes.
Why the shadows are tallest in the morning?
Shadows appear tallest in the morning because the sun is low on the horizon, casting longer shadows due to the angle of sunlight. As the day progresses, the sun rises higher, reducing the length of shadows.
Why is the shadow of your body taller than you?
Depending on which angle the sun is in relation to your body your shadows length can change.
What determines the shape of a shadow?
the way that you stand determines the shape of a shadow.
What happens to the temperature as the angle at which the Sun's Rays strike earth's surface increases as the angle decreases what happens to the length of shadows at the same time?

What happens to temperature as the angle at which the sun's rays strike the earth's surface increases. As the angle decreases. What happens to the length of the shadows at the same time?

How does the angle of the sun as it hits earths surface effect the length of the shadows?
The lower the Sun is on the horizon, the longer the shadow that is cast, the higher the Sun is in the sky, the shorter the shadow.
Why do you get different length shadows?
It all depends on the angle of the sun and also is ur standing next to someone who's taller than you then you're shadow will be smaller but really it's the angle of the sun
What happens to temperature as the angle at which the sun's ray strike earth's surface increases as the angle decrease What happens to the length of shadows at the same time?
When it decreases the showdows get smaller and fade but when the angle increases the shadow gets bigger.
Does the time of year make a difference to your shadow?
Yes, the time of year can affect the length of your shadow. In the summer, when the sun is higher in the sky, shadows are shorter compared to the longer shadows cast during winter when the sun is lower in the sky.
What causes shadows the change during the day?
when you move and when the sun angle changes
What causes the shadows to change day to day?
when you move and when the sun angle changes
