Science project idea on he hottest and coldest months.
Hottest and Coldest Months Science Project Idea
Why July and August are the hottest months and January the coldest month. According to the amount of heat received from the sun, what days of the year would you expect to be the hottest? Which is the chief source of heat of the air, the direct rays of the sun, or the heat given out by the land and water of the earth's surface? (Of course, they too have received their heat from the sun). What becomes of a large amount of the heat which comes from the sun during the latter half of June? What finally becomes of much of this heat?
It takes a considerable time to heat the land and water, and on the other hand they cool off gradually. Explain why January is colder than the latter half of December. You have already learned that bodies of land cool more rapidly than bodies of water. Explain, therefore, why coast cities have a later spring and winter than inland cities.  Why is the strip of land about ten miles wide along Lake Ontario the best peach producing region of New York?
