Schoolchildren analyzed the data presented in the table on the height of the Sun above the horizon and the duration of daylight on November 6. Sergey and Anton analyzed the dependence of the duration of daylight on the geographical latitude of the location, and Masha and Natasha - the dependence of the height of the Sun above the horizon on geographical latitude. Who among the children made the correct conclusion? 1) Sergey: "On November 6, the further north, the longer the daylight hours." 2) Anton: "On November 6, as you move from north to south, the duration of daylight increases." 3) Masha: "On November 6, the further west, the higher the Sun above the horizon." 4) Natasha: "On November 6, the closer to the equator, the lower the Sun above the horizon." Write down the number of the chosen answer. Answer: Arrange the listed parallels in order of increasing height of the Sun above the horizon on March 21, starting with the parallel with the lowest height of the Sun above the horizon. 1) 50° N. sh. 2) 20° S. sh. 3) 40° S. sh. Write the resulting sequence of numbers in the table. Answer:

Analysis of the table data:

To answer question 14, we need to analyze the provided table. The table shows data for November 6th. We are looking for the relationship between latitude and daylight hours, or latitude and Sun's height.

1. Sergey's conclusion: "On November 6, the further north, the longer the daylight hours." Looking at the table, as latitude increases (from Anapa 45° N to Arkhangelsk 65° N), the duration of daylight decreases (from 9h 54m to 7h 15m). So, Sergey's conclusion is incorrect.
2. Anton's conclusion: "On November 6, as you move from north to south, the duration of daylight increases." This is the opposite of Sergey's observation. As we move from north (Arkhangelsk) to south (Anapa), the duration of daylight increases. This statement is correct.
3. Masha's conclusion: "On November 6, the further west, the higher the Sun above the horizon." The table provides longitude data (e.g., 37° E, 36° E, 85° E, 41° E), but it doesn't show a clear trend related to westward movement and Sun's height in this context. The primary factor for Sun's height at a given time is latitude. The data provided doesn't support this claim.
4. Natasha's conclusion: "On November 6, the closer to the equator, the lower the Sun above the horizon." As we move closer to the equator (from higher latitudes towards 0°), the Sun's height above the horizon generally increases in winter (in the Northern Hemisphere). For example, at 45° N, the height is 29°, and at 65° N, it's 9°. Moving towards the equator would mean lower latitudes, where the sun is higher. So, Natasha's conclusion is incorrect.

Therefore, Anton's conclusion is the only one supported by the data.

Answer: 2

Analysis for question 15:

We need to arrange the parallels in order of increasing height of the Sun above the horizon on March 21st. On March 21st, the Sun is directly over the equator (0° latitude). The height of the Sun above the horizon at noon decreases as you move away from the equator, both north and south.

The given parallels are:

• 1) 50° N. sh.
• 2) 20° S. sh.
• 3) 40° S. sh.

On March 21st:

• At the equator (0°), the Sun is at its highest point (90° at noon).
• As we move away from the equator, the Sun's height decreases.
• 50° N. sh. is further from the equator than 20° S. sh. and 40° S. sh.
• 40° S. sh. is further from the equator than 20° S. sh.

Therefore, the order of increasing height of the Sun above the horizon (starting with the lowest) is:

1. The furthest from the equator: 50° N. sh. (lowest height)
2. Next furthest: 40° S. sh.
3. Closest to the equator: 20° S. sh. (highest height among the options)

So the order of parallels by increasing height of the Sun is 50° N, 40° S, 20° S.

The question asks to write down the sequence of numbers corresponding to these parallels.
