a) Albedo effect- Albedo effect is the amount of sun radiation that reflects away

Geography Dec 07, 2022

a) Albedo effect- Albedo effect is the amount of sun radiation that reflects away. A perfectly reflective surface getsvan Albedo scorevof 1 and while a completely dark surface gets a Albedo score of 0.

I will choose to but a white honda since white surface reflects the radiation from sun and keeps the temperature down. Albedo effect has a significant impact on our earth. If the albedo score is lower that means more radiation from sun is getting absorbed by the planet and this leads to raise in temperature. If the score is high that means the radiation gets reflected back and this cools planet. White color honda has high albedo score and that will help the planet by reducing the temperature.

b) A Green House helps in increasing the growth of the planet and it will allow you to grow plants that would normally not survive in your climate. Plants need light, warm temperatures, air, water and nutrients to survive snd grow. It is 20 degree outside in Denver and you cannot grow plants in that temperature, but in a green house we can grow plants that can't be grown in that temperature.

Greenhouse ate mostly made of translucent materials like glass or clear plastic through which light can pass. When the light come in it is absorbed by the plants, ground and everything else inside the greenhouse. When the light is absorbed it is changed into heat energy from light energy and it cannot escape out of greenhouse glass walls. The trapped heat warms air inside the greenhouse and raised entire greenhouse temperature.

C) The reason for seasons is because the Earth's axis is tilted. Different parts of the earth receive the sun's most direct rays throughout the year. So when South Pole tilts towards sun it is summer in Southern Hemisphere and vise versa.

Many people believe that the Earth is closer to sun in summer and that is the reason it is hotter and farthest from sun is winter but that is not true.

Aphelion is the point of Earth's orbit that is farthest away from the sun.

Perihelion is the point of Earth's orbit that is nearest to the sun.

About two weeks after December solstice when it is winter in Northern Hemisphere the Earth is closest to the sun or at Perihelion.

Two weeks after June solstice the Earth is farthest away from the sun at the Aphelion point that is when Northern Hemisphere is enjoying Summer.
