Which factor keeps the greatest percentage of insolation from reaching the Earth's surface on cloudy days?
reflection by cloud droplets
What is percentage of the total global surface area is France?
France has an area of 678,843 sq km and the Earth has a surface area of 510,072,000 sq km. Therefore France occupies approximately 0.1323% of the world's surface.
What is the tilt of the earth for winter?
In summer the suns rays travel directly to the surface at a steep angle, so are still warm. In winter the rays strike at a shallower angle, and cool down rapidly as they travel a longer distance through the atmosphere before reaching the surface.
Why is the fuse blowing on your 1989 Volvo 245 overdrive circuit?
Probably because of the missing insulation from the wire leading from the solonoid on the transmission, causing the bare wire to contact a metal surface, thus creating a short circuit and blowing the fuse.
Why would a metal shack be an unsafe home in the desert .?
Because the sun in the desert would burn the metalThe metal surface would constantly absorb the sun's heat - making it impossible to live in !

How does insulation change with increasing latitude?
Insulation decreases with increasing latitude due to the angle at which sunlight reaches the Earth's surface. At higher latitudes, the sun's rays are more spread out and travel through more atmosphere before reaching the surface, leading to lower insulation levels. This results in cooler temperatures at higher latitudes compared to lower latitudes.
How does double insulation protect users from electric shock?
Double insulation is a safety feature in electrical appliances where an extra layer of insulation is provided between the conductive parts and the exterior surface. This prevents direct contact between the user and any conductive parts that may become live due to a fault. If a fault occurs and the live parts touch the conductive parts, the double insulation ensures that the user is protected from electric shock by preventing the flow of electricity to the exterior surface of the appliance.
What percent radiation is lost after reaching earth's surface?
about 5% of radiation is lost before reaching Earth's surface
What type of adhesive is recommended for attaching polystyrene insulation to a surface?
A construction adhesive or foam adhesive is recommended for attaching polystyrene insulation to a surface.
What is anti sweat insulation?
Anti sweat insulation means to prevent condensation of atmospheric water vapour on the surface of pipe is called anti sweat insulation.
Do Volcanic necks and dikes form when magma cools and hardens into rock after reaching the surface?
No, these features form when magma cools into rocks BEFORE reaching the surface.
Why is water the enemy of insulation?
Water decreases the overall thermal performance of the insulation, also water may just short circuit around the insulation and render it useless.Water, if present on dielectric surface, due its high conductivity decreases the surface resistivity of the dielectric, thus causes high creepage current (surface current).
Does a smaller rock a have higher or lower percentage of surface area than a larger rock?
It depends on percentage related to WHAT! You cannot express surface area as a percentage of volume since the dimensions are different. So the only percentage you can have is the suface area of the smaller rock as a percentage of the surface area of the larger rock. In that case, the answer, not surprisingly, is that the smaller rock has the smaller percentage surface area.It depends on percentage related to WHAT!

What factors contribute to the decrease in the amount of energy reaching earth's surface?
There are several factors that contribute to the decrease in the amount of energy reaching earth's surface. These are: reflection, scattering, absorption by gases and aerosols in the atmosphere, and cloud cover.
