Can an earthquake be caused by temperature?
Not by temperature variations at Earth's surface, no. However, temperature variations in Earth's mantle play a role in plate tectonics, and so can affect earthquake activity.
How does the angle of the sun hitting the earth affect the temperature of the earth?
Sunlight is at its strongest when it is at a perpendicular angle; at oblique angles it is weaker.
How will burning forests affect the average temperature of the Earth?
When forests burn they release carbon dioxide which is a greenhouse gas which tends to make the Earth warmer.
What 2 things can affect enzyme activity?
The pH level of the environment and the temperature can both affect enzyme activity. Enzymes have an optimal pH and temperature range within which they function most effectively, and deviations from these ranges can reduce enzyme activity.
Why doesn't the angle of the moon affect the temperature on earth?
The Moon is cold . . . it is bright only because it reflects Sunlight.
How does location on earth affect temperature?
The equater.
Does the distance from the sun affect the earth's temperature?
Because of the Earths atmosphere, the distance from the Sun, does not affect the temperature on the surface of the Earth. In the northern hemisphere, we are closer to the Sun in winter and the furthest away in summer.
Can an earthquake be caused by temperature?
Not by temperature variations at Earth's surface, no. However, temperature variations in Earth's mantle play a role in plate tectonics, and so can affect earthquake activity.
How did gravitational contraction affect earth?
Gravitational contraction raised the temperature of Earth early in it's formation.
Degrees are used to measure this?
Temperature, angles, and Earth co-ordinates are all measured in degrees.
What is the winter solstice and how does it affect earth's temperature in the northern hemisphere?
It is when the day is the shortest in the year. It really shouldn't affect temperature(except it might be cold be cause it is winter!)
How does earth rotation and sun position affect heat and temperature on the earth?
I am not an a*****e like you al who have answered these questions
How does the air temperature affect the earth?
it dose not. but what dose is the atmosphere, & how close it is 2 the sun.
How does the angle of the sun hitting the earth affect the temperature of the earth?
Sunlight is at its strongest when it is at a perpendicular angle; at oblique angles it is weaker.
Why is Earth windy?
The rotation of the Earth has some affect. The difference in temperature is the main cause, with cold and warm temperatures moving the air about.
Could human activities affect earth's capacity to limit changes in global temperature?
Yes. Deforestation, which is primarily a human activity, affects the earth's capacity to control global temperature.
How does the shape of earth affect air temperature?
it dose not. but what dose is the atmosphere, & how close it is 2 the sun.
