How far is earths magnetic axis tilted from its geographic axis?
The Earth's magnetic field is tilted about 11.5 degrees from the Earth's axis of rotation (i.e. its geographic axis).
What does Earths axis of rotation is tilted at an angle of 23.5 degrees . what is one change you would see on earth of its axis was not tilted?
Mainly, there would be no seasons.
Axis of rotation of this planet shows almost no tilt?
The planet with the axis of rotation which gives it almost no tilt is "Mercury". "Mercury's" axis of rotation has a tilt of 0 degrees. The planet "Jupiter" has very little tilt due to its axis of rotation at only 3 degrees.
How much longer is Mars' rotation than the Earth's rotation?
Mars sidereal rotation is 1.025 day Earths sidereal rotation is 0.997 day. Mars rotates on its axis at a speed similar to Earth's,averagiung 25 degrees,although in the past that angle has been as great as 60 degrees. This means that Mars,like Earth,has distinct seasons
What is the direction of Pluto's rotation?
I'm not sure how to explain directions in space since they are all relative to something else. This is about the best I can do. If you mean Pluto's rotation around the Sun it orbits in the same direction as the Earth which is also the same as the Sun's rotation on its axis. If you mean Pluto's rotation on its axis it's opposite the rotation of the Earth and Sun on their axes.
How is the earths sphere tilted?
The Earth's axis of rotation is tilted 23.44 degrees from the plane of the ecliptic.
How far is earths magnetic axis tilted from its geographic axis?
The Earth's magnetic field is tilted about 11.5 degrees from the Earth's axis of rotation (i.e. its geographic axis).
Is the earths axis rotation almost parallel to the plane of its orbit?
No; it's about 23 degrees off the plane of its orbit.
The Coriolis effect is caused by what?
the Earths rotation
What does Earths axis of rotation is tilted at an angle of 23.5 degrees . what is one change you would see on earth of its axis was not tilted?
Mainly, there would be no seasons.
Why does Earths inner core solid?
The Earth's rotation on its axis
What is one complete spin on earths axis called?
That's "rotation".
How are poles of earth fixed?
By the axis of earths rotation
Is earths spinning on its axis is called rotation?
yes
Is the moon slowing earths rotation axis?
no and yes
What if the earths axis of rotation were tilted at a different angle. also what would the seasons be like if earths axis was a 0 degrees and b 45 degrees?
Earth's axis has a tilt of 23.5 degrees; this is what causes seasons. 0 degrees: practically no seasons (there would be minor changes due to a varying distance from the Sun). 45 degrees: seasons would be much more pronounced.
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.
