What is inclined at an angle of 11.5 to earth's rotation axis?
what is inclined at an angle of11.5 to earth's rotational axis?
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.
How is a screw same as an inclined plane?
A screw is an inclined plane wrapped around an axis.
Why are the seasons reversed in the northern and southern hemisphere?
Because Earths axis is tilted.
What does Earths magnetic axis do not do with its rotational axis?
intersect
What is the Imaginary rod on which the earth rotate?
The axis
What is Jupiter's axis tilt?
Axes aren't inclined, they are tilted. Orbital planes are inclined, and Jupiter's is inclined about 6 degrees from the Solar equator. Planes can also be inclined relative to the ecliptic or the invariable plane. Jupiter's axis is tilted about 3 degrees from the ecliptic.
Two reasons for seasons?
1. Tilt of earths axis 2. Earths axis remains parallel throughout its yearly orbit.
What evidence of the tilt of earths axis?
Seasons
How long is the earths axis?
About 8,000 miles.
