Why does the southern hemisphere experience winter and summer solstice in different times than of the northern hemisphere?
As everyone knows the Earth tilts on it's axis at the angle of 66 and half degrees. On 21st December the Earth tilts on it's axis so that the sun would hit the southern hemisphere and then the southern hemisphere would have winter while the northern hemisphere would have winter. So when the sun's rays hit the northern hemisphere then the northern hemisphere would have summer while the southern hemisphere would have winter.
Is the winter solstice tilted toward the sun?
At both the winter and summer solstices, the Earth is tilted towards the sun. What differs is which hemisphere is tilted towards the sun. In the northern hemisphere at its winter solstice, the southern hemisphere is tilted towards the sun, while the northern hemisphere it tilted away from the sun. In the southern hemisphere at its winter solstice, the northern hemisphere is tilted towards the sun, while the southern hemisphere it tilted towards the sun. When it is the winter solstice in one hemisphere, it is the summer solstice is in the other hemisphere. For a winter solstice, that particular hemisphere is tilted away from the sun.
Why does the nothern and southern hemispheres have different seasons at the same time?
Because the Earth tilts at 23.5°, meaning that sometimes the northern hemisphere is leaning towards the sun, giving it summer, while the southern hemisphere is leaning away from it, giving it winter. At other times the southern hemisphere is leaning towards the sun, giving it summer, while the northern hemisphere is leaning away from it, giving it winter.
Why is it summer in the northern hemisphere when it is winter in the southern hemisphere?
The earth is on an angle of 23.5 degrees. So one end of the planet is closer to the sun then the other. During the northern hemisphere's summer its is closest to the sun and the southern hemisphere is furthest from the sun.
Where is the southern hemisphere in relation to the sun when it is summer in the northern hemisphere?
In summer, the N. Hemisphere is oriented toward the Sun, while the S. Hemisphere is oriented away. In the winter, the opposite is true. The Earth is actually closer to the Sun in the N. Hemisphere Winter than in the Summer.
What month is on the other side of July in earth orbit around the sun?
The month that is on the other side of July in the earth's orbit around the sun would be January. January is the second month of winter, while July is the second month in the summer. So, it is winter, which is the opposite of summer.
Is it in Bible that you can tell the winter from the summer?
No. But the Bible says that summer and winter will not stop. Genesis 8:22 "While the earth remains, Seedtime and harvest, Cold and heat, Winter and summer, And day and night Shall not cease."
Does the seasonal cycle occurs because Earth is closer to the sun in the summer than in the winter?
The Earth rotates on it's axis. In the summer, the Earth is tilted towards the sun. In the winter, the Earth is titled away from the sun. On the Earth, the northern regions (above the equator) have winter, while the southern regions (below the equator) have summer. Then, the opposite becomes true. The southern regions have winter, while the norther regions have summer. The distance nearer and farther from the sun makes no difference as far as the Earth's summer and winter is concerned.
What causes the season summer?
The earth's rotation causes different seasons. While it's summer in the United States, it is winter in South America.
Do you have summer because while the earth moves some countries are having summer?
When it is summer in the Northern Hemisphere, it is winter in the Southern Hemisphere, and vice versa. Summer solstice and winter solstice are the most common names. However, these can be ambiguous since seasons of the northern hemisphere and southern hemisphere are opposites, and the summer solstice of one hemisphere is the winter solstice of the other. These are also known as the 'longest' or 'shortest' days of the year.
Why is it summer in the northern hemisphere but winter in the southern hemisphere?
Because of the tilt of the Earth's axis. In the northern hemisphere it is summer because the Earth is tilted toward the sun while the southern hemisphere is tilted away from the sun making it winter; and vica versa.
Why is it winter in Europe when it is summer in Texas?
because the earth is always moving around the sun and its rotating at the same time, so the sun is on Europe, while Texas is on the other side of the earth. hope this helps :D
What night I longer winter or summer?
The summer nights are shorter while the winter nights are longer.
When it is winter in the northern hemisphere it is summer in the....?
Yes, the Southern Hemisphere is in winter while the northern is in summer
Why is it winter on the other side of the world when we have summer?
The Earth is tilted on its axis, so as it orbits the sun, different parts of the world receive varying amounts of sunlight. This results in seasonal changes. When one side of the Earth is tilted towards the sun, it experiences summer, while the other side, tilted away, experiences winter.
During winter months does earth travel away from the sun?
If one end of the earth's axis is leaning away from the sun, then the other end must be leaning toward it. Whichever half of the earth happens to be leaning away has Winter, while the half that's leaning toward the sun at the same time has Summer at the same time.
What season are you having in Australia when the sun does not set on the North Pole?
Winter. The Earth has an axis, tilted at about 23.5° from the perpendicular to Earth's orbit. When the Earth's north pole is tilted towards the Sun, the northern hemisphere is in summer while the southern hemisphere is in winter. That's the main time when the Sun doesn't set at the north pole. When the Earth's north pole is tilted away from the Sun the southern hemisphere is in summer while the northern hemisphere is in winter.
