well... in the summer the sun is higer in the sky, moving on top of the earth, moving in an arch... like this: and the arch is on top of the earth (i cant show u, i dont know how 2 do an arrow)
The season with the highest angle of insolation is summer. This is due to the Earth's tilt on its axis, which causes the Sun's rays to be more direct during summer months in each hemisphere.
The sun can be visible for 24 hours straight ! -___-
The sun is higher in the sky at noon in the summer due to the tilt of the Earth's axis. During summer in the Northern Hemisphere, the North Pole is tilted toward the sun, resulting in longer days and a higher sun angle. This angle causes the sun to reach its peak point in the sky at noon during the summer months.
This happens during all seasons except the the Australian winter. However, it only happens for a full season during summer. So, the best answer is probably "summer".
In summer, the sun is typically high in the sky, resulting in longer days and more direct sunlight. This is because of the tilt of the Earth's axis during this season, which causes the sun to be at a more overhead angle in many regions.
Changes in the angle of the sun's rays on the Earth cause seasons in the northern hemisphere because when the sun's rays hit the Earth at a more direct angle, it provides more concentrated heat and longer days, leading to warmer temperatures and summer. Conversely, when the sun's rays hit the Earth at a less direct angle, it diffuses the heat and results in colder temperatures and winter.
The sun feels more intense during the summer months because the Earth's tilt causes the sun's rays to hit the surface at a more direct angle, leading to higher temperatures and stronger sunlight.
the earths shape is sphere.
The steepest sun angle reached in Houston, TX is on June 21 during solar noon. That angle is 83.7 degrees (almost straight up). Vertical objects will have the shortest shadows on June 21. To find the solar noon sun angle on the summer/winter solstice and spring/fall equinox for your location, simply find your latitude and subtract it from 90. Then add 23.45. Houston's latitude is 29.75 degrees north of the equator. So... 90-29.75=60.25 60.25+23.45=83.7 degree sun angle
The Earth tilts toward the sun at an angle of 23.44 degrees, because the Earth rotates, the entire Earth tilts toward the sun during summer and away from the sun during winter.
During the summer months, it is hot because the Earth's tilt causes the sun's rays to hit the Earth at a more direct angle, leading to more concentrated heat. This results in higher temperatures during the summer.
During the summer solstice, the Earth's North Pole is tilted towards the Sun, causing the Northern Hemisphere to experience longer daylight hours. The Sun's rays strike the Tropic of Cancer at a 90-degree angle during this time.
