It is because of the small change in the distance as compared to their separation.
It Is closest to the earth In the winter.
It doesn't. The part of the Earth closest to the sun is the part of the Earth experiencing Winter.
this is a very unclear question..i'm assuming you mean where on the earth is the sun closest when it is winter for you.if you have winter, the sun is closest to your opposite hemisphere, which is where it is summer.
in the northern hemisphere the sun is closest to earth in the dead of winter
Perihelion is when the Earth is closest to the sun.
In the winter It's when the earth is closest to the sun.
No. As it happens the Earth is closest to the sun when it is winter in the northern hemisphere. Seasons like summer and winter are related to the tilt of the earth with respect to the plane of its orbit about the sun, not to the distance from the sun.
no, it is winter in either the northern hemisphere or the southern hemisphere.it all depends on the tilt of the earth to the sun.
The Sun is closest to the Earth in January. In the northern hemisphere, it is winter at that time. The seasons are not caused by changes in the Sun-Earth distance.
The apparent diameter of the sun is largest when it is closest to Earth, during the winter solstice in December. This phenomenon is known as perihelion, when Earth is at its closest distance to the sun in its elliptical orbit.
Because Earth travels in an ellipse.
