Is the earth is closest to the sun during the month of august?
No. It is closet to the sun in January! Seasons are caused by tilt of the earth, not how close to the sun it is. But for which Hemisphere? Season are determined by tilt. The earth stays the same distance away from the sun every season.
Why the earth closest to the sun on January?
Why not? That's just the way the Earth's orbit worked out. You were probably wondering why the Earth is closest to the sun in the coldest month of the year. This is because the Earth's proximity to the sun doesn't really have anything to do with surface temperatures. The big factor is the tilt of the Earth's axis. In January, the North pole is tilted away from the sun, making it winter in the Northern Hemisphere. This means that at the same time, the south pole is titled towards the sun, making it summer in the Southern Hemisphere. It is warmer in a hemisphere when its pole is tilted towards the sun because the sun's rays are more direct on that hemisphere.
