How is the temperature affected on earths tilt?
The revolution of the earth defines its tilt. The "tilt" is the angle between the axis of rotation of the earth and the axis of its revolution around the sun. Both these axes must exist to define the tilt. If the earth did not rotate on an axis of its own, or if it did not revolve around the sun, it would be meaningless to speak of a tilt.
Is Earth habitable if its axis is tilted at 90 degrees angle?
It probably wouldn't be habitable, if the Earth's axial "tilt" were 90 degrees.
What is the approximate angle of the tilt if the earths?
23.5 degrees
What on earth is equal to 23.5 degrees?
Tilt is the world you're looking for. "Angle the rotational axis makes with the perpendicular to the ecliptic plane" would be more accurate.
How much does the earth tilt on its axis?
23.44
What is the approximate Angle the tilt of the earths axis?
It is about 23.5 degrees
What is angle of tilt of the Earth axis?
It is about 23.5 degrees
Which planet spins on a 97 degree angle to the vertical axis?
Mercury's axis tilt is 0°. Venus' axis tilt is 177.4°. Earth's axis tilt is 23.5°. Mars' axis tilt is 25.2°. Jupiter's axis tilt is 3.1°. Saturn's axis tilt is 25.3°. Uranus' axis tilt is 97.8°. Neptune's axis tilt is 28.8°. Pluto's axis tilt is 122.5°.
Which planets axis tilt is similar to earths?
Mars has a very similar angle of axial tilt to Earth.
What is the significance of 23.5?
In degrees it is the approximate tilt of the Earth's axis in 3 significant figures
What is the degree that the earth is tilted?
I think the question should be "what is the angle..." The tilt of Earth's axis is about 23.5°. This is the angle between Earth's axis and a line that is vertical to the Ecliptic (the plane in which Earth orbits the Sun).
Why is the northern hemisphere colder in Feb than December if the tilt of the axis is more towards the sun?
the angle of the earth's axis
how much angle earth angled?
If you mean the" tilt" of the Earth's axis, it's about 23.5 degrees from the perpendicular to the Earth's orbit.
Is Mars tilted on its axis?
Mars is tilted at 25.19°, which is pretty close (slightly greater) than earth's 23.44° tilt. That "tilt" is the angle between the axis of rotation and the line perpendicular to the plane of the planet's orbit.
Why is knowing the tilt of the earth's axis important?
The tilt of the Earth's axis is why there are seasons. =)

You can find the tilt of Earth's axis by measuring the angle between your horizon and the North Star?
yes
