Earth day in the southern hemisphere?
it is day in the southern hemisphere because the earth is at a 23 degree angle. the northern hemisphere is in night time.
What angle does a hemisphere have?
what angle does a hemisphere have what angle does a hemisphere have what angle does a hemisphere have
Why is a southern exposure generally the most satisfactory direction in solar-orienting a window wall?
This only applies in the northern hemisphere. In the southern hemisphere a northern exposure is desirable. The sun angle, or altitude, varies depending on the latitude. North of the equator, the higher the latitude, the more southerly the sun angle, therefore the greater the exposure to the sun from a southern oriented window. Conversely, in the latitudes south of the equator, thehigher the latitude, the more northerly the sun angle.
Where do angle sharks live?
They live in warm temperate oceans in the southern hemisphere.
When its winter in the northern hemisphere why is it summer in the southern hemisphere?
The earth is on an angle of 23.5 degrees. So one end of the planet is closer to the sun then the other. During the northern hemisphere's summer its is closest to the sun and the southern hemisphere is furthest from the sun.

How is the southern cross used to navigate?
The southern cross is a well known star configuration which can be seen from the southern hemisphere. The cross is used to navigate because it's angle is esilly identifiable by many. There are two bright stars just off from each other near the southern cross which are called the pointers. Theese are used to line up with the cross and determine the angle/direction.
Why are seasons reversed in the southern hemisphere?
In short, because of the axial tilt of the earth. In May - July, the northern hemisphere is tilted more towards the sun and gets more sunlight at a more direct angle. The reverse is true for the southern hemisphere. In November - January, the situation is reversed; the southern hemisphere gets more direct sunlight.
Why does the southern hemisphere experience winter and summer solstice in different times than of the northern hemisphere?
As everyone knows the Earth tilts on it's axis at the angle of 66 and half degrees. On 21st December the Earth tilts on it's axis so that the sun would hit the southern hemisphere and then the southern hemisphere would have winter while the northern hemisphere would have winter. So when the sun's rays hit the northern hemisphere then the northern hemisphere would have summer while the southern hemisphere would have winter.
Why does the northern hemisphere receive more sunlight than the southern hemisphere?
Whichever hemisphere (the Northern or Southern Hemisphere) is tilted toward the sun receives more direct rays of sunlight (or rays that are closer to perpendicular or a 90° angle). The hemisphere tilted toward the sun also has more hours of daylight than the hemisphere that is tilted away from the sun
Why is Earth's surface warmer in the north hemisphere it is summer there?
The earth surface is warmer in the northern hemisphere when it issummer there because of the angle of the sun. For the same reason,the Earth's surface is warmer in the southern hemisphere when it isSummer there.
What is the best angle for a solar panal?
South, unless you are in the southern hemisphere, then you would point it north. In the direction that captures the most sun
