What if the moon was not in orbit of the earth?
If the moon was not in orbit around the Earth, the tilt of the Earth's axis with respect to the plane of the ecliptic would be unstable. As a result, seasons and climate would be unstable, and life as we know it on Earth would change or disappear.
Earth is tilted on its axis at a 23.5-degree angle creating a short period of climate change commonly called?
Hmmm. Many possible answers for this question. "Seasons".
What changes in the earth orbit and the tilt of the earths axis cause ice ages?
Climate
Is there any change in the earth's axis due to the recent earthquake in Japan?
Yes, It changed the Earth's Axis by up to 6-6.5 Degrees.
What causes the day and night of earth on its axis?
Mainly, this is caused by Earth's rotation around its axis. (Earth's revolution around the Sun results in one less day per year, than the number of rotations.)
How does the tilt of the earth's axis and the angle of sunlight hitting the regions of the temperate deciduous forests effect the climate?
it can change the climate it different regions.
What is the two things that is responsible for the change in climate from summer to winter?
The tilt of the Earth's axis and direct and indirect sunlight
How do seasons changes?
They change by the tilt of the earth's axis!
What is responsible for the climate zones on the earth?
Unequal heating of the earth's surface. The earth's axis.
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
What does Earth's tilted axis mainly affect?
Seasons And Climate
Describe cyclical climate change?
The seasons occur regularly, every year, because of the tilt of Earth's axis of revolution. The wobble of this axis and the "extra" time it takes Earth to circle the sun each year cause climate changes on a very long time scale - tens of thousands of years.
Does the tilt of the earth's axis change as the earth revolves?
NO
How will season on earth change when earth axis points away from polaris and toward vega in 14000 years?
In 14,000 years from now, the sun's output may have changed by a few percent, or our average distance from it may have changed slightly. Either of those changes would have a profound effect on the Earth's average climate. But the precession of the rotation axis has no effect on the climate or the seasons.
Is hours of sunshine a description of climate and if it is why?
No, the angle of the earth on its axis determines the actual climate. Since the earth tilts on the axis and the widest area of the earth is the equator, winter occurs in the northern hemisphere when earth is closest to the sun, but is actually tilted away from the sun on its axis. When the earth tilts back toward the sun, summer comes to the northern hemisphere.
What is one change you would see on Earth if its axis was not titled?
There wouldn't be any seasons. The climate at any place would be the same all year around.
What if the moon was not in orbit of the earth?
If the moon was not in orbit around the Earth, the tilt of the Earth's axis with respect to the plane of the ecliptic would be unstable. As a result, seasons and climate would be unstable, and life as we know it on Earth would change or disappear.
