The Coriolis effect is caused by what?
the Earths rotation
What role does the earths axis play in rotation and revolution?
The axis is what the Earth rotates around, like the axis on a wheel.
What are the two factors that cause the earth's seasons?
rotation of earth -earth is at a tilt so sometimes some parts get more sun then others rotation around the sun -earth will be at different distances from the sun as it rotates around
What is the importance of the inclination of the earth axis?
This titled position of the earths axis is known as inclination of the earths axis. The earth's rotation axis makes an angle of about 66.5 degrees with the plane of its orbit around the sun, or about 23.5 degrees from the perpendicular to the ecliptic plane.
What is earth's unique axis?
Its axis of rotation.
Does the earths magnetic field cause the earth to tilt?
No. Earth's magnetic field does not affect its axis of rotation.
Why does Earths inner core solid?
The Earth's rotation on its axis
The Coriolis effect is caused by what?
the Earths rotation
How are poles of earth fixed?
By the axis of earths rotation
How does the tilt of earths axis and its rotation affect the weather?
The same way it affects most of earth. The seasons are caused by the tilt of the earth's axis relative to the plane of its orbit.
What would be the effect on satellites now in orbit if earth were to not be rotating on its axis?
The earths rotation about its axis has no affect on the orbit of satellites about earth. Only their relative velocities and positions are relevant, not their orientation
What can earth's axis of rotation be used to establish?
earths patterns of nature
What is earths axis of rotation (tilt)?
Earth's axial tilt is 23.44°.
What role does the earths axis play in rotation and revolution?
The axis is what the Earth rotates around, like the axis on a wheel.
What is earths rotation on its axis and the sun shining on the earth creates?
day and night
How the earth movements affect climate?
earths axis is little tilted which makes its rotation different at different points of time. this change in rotation and the significant difference of distant between the earth and the sun affects the climate
The spinning of the Earth on its axis is called?
RotationThe spinning of the Earth on its axis is known as 'the Earths rotation'Rotation.Rotating.rotation (as opposed to orbiting, which describes the earth's movements around the sun)
