measurement simulates the approximate angle of sunlight that hits nearer the Earth’s poles. 3. To determine the lit area of the grid when the flashlight is held at 90°, count the number of full

Sunlight Angles Lab The Earth is a sphere, so sunlight doesn’t hit it evenly. Indirect light is light that hits the Earth on an angle. In this lab, you will explore how direct and indirect sunlight …

Solar intensity, or the amount of solar energy per unit area, is determined by the angle of the Sun in the sky. Solar intensity increases when the Sun is high in the sky and decreases when the …

ANGLE OF SUNLIGHT 1 OUTCOME: Students learn about another reason for the seasons, the angle of sunshine striking the surface of the earth and the area covered by sunlight. Direct …

In the lab today you investigated how the heat energy absorbed from a source of radiation depends on the angle at which it strikes. This lab is a model of insolation (sunlight) received at …

Angle of Sunlight Lab Purpose: In this activity you will use a penlight to represent the Sun’s rays, and investigate how the angle at which it hits earth’s surface effects the amount of incoming …

This laboratory activity is designed to illustrate how a unit of sunlight is distributed over the Earth’s surface at various times of the year or at various latitudes. You will perform a series of …
