Question

Why does the intensity of solar energy from the sun depend on the angle ?

Answer 1

If we were straight to the sun then some of the earth would get no sublight or very little

Answer 2

"The tilt angle has a major impact on the solar radiation incident on a surface. For a fixed tilt angle, the maximum power over the course of a year is obtained when the tilt angle is equal to the latitude of the location. However, steeper tilt angles are optimized for large winter loads, while lower title angles use a greater fraction of light in the summer. The simulation below calculates the maximum number of solar insolation as a function of latitude and module angle."

Answer 3

As far as I know, the intensity of solar energy from the sun depends on the angle the energy hits the Earth. Due to Earth’s curvature, locations farther from the equatorial regions receive solar energy at a shallower (smaller) angle. The shallower the angle of incoming solar energy, the less radiation hits the atmosphere and the cooler the climate will be. Earth is slightly flattened at the poles and bulges at the equator, causing Earth’s axis to wobble slightly. This wobble changes climate on a timescale of tens of thousands of years.
