How does the rotation of the earth affect the appearance of the sun?

Answer 1

its 66.5 degrees

Answer 2

The rotation of the Earth causes the Sun to appear to rise in the east and set in the west each day. This movement creates the cycle of day and night. The angle at which the Sun appears in the sky also changes throughout the day due to the Earth's rotation.

Answer 3

When neither of the earth's poles is tilted toward or away from the sun, that's when the sun is

located at one of the two equinoxes in the sky. This happens on March 21 (vernal) and September 21 (autumnal)

Answer 4

we will go on a universal tilt causing the gravity to shift and we move away from or toward the sun....if we move toward we burn to death...if you turn away from the sun...we freeze to death...either way we would die
One side of the earth would be a desert for months and the other side would be a new ice age for 6 months. Well that wouldn't happen unless the moon went away from us and the earth gravity is pulling the moon in place... Actually the moon is getting closer to us.......
At the very least, we could anticipate changes in seasonal weather and long-term climate.

Answer 5

The earth's axis of rotation isn't exactly perpendicular (straight up and down) to the plane of its

orbit around the sun. But it always points in the same direction ... the north pole pointing close to

the North Star. Since it always points in the same direction, the north pole leans toward the sun

when we're on one side of it, and away from the sun six months later, when we're around on the

other side of the sun.

Answer 6

Earth's Tilt Is the Reason for the Seasons!

During the year, the seasons change depending on the amount of sunlight reaching the Earth as it revolves around the Sun.

The seasons are caused as the Earth, tilted on its axis, travels in a loop around the Sun each year. Summer happens in the hemisphere tilted towards the Sun, and winter happens in the hemisphere tilted away from the Sun. As the Earth travels around the Sun, the hemisphere that is tilted towards or away from the Sun changes.

Answer 7

The earth's axis of rotation makes an angle of roughly 66.5 degrees with the plane of

the earth's orbit around the sun.

The axis doesn't wiggle or wobble in the course of a year, and is always pointed toward

the same point among the distant stars. So at different times throughout the year, it will

appear to tilt toward the sun, or away from the sun, or neither.

Answer 8

The Earth tilts about 23° (the axis tilt with respect to the plane of the Earth orbit).

The tilt is sych that in June the northern hemisphere is tilted towards the sun and in December the northern hemisphere is away from the sun. (The Earth is actually closes to the Sun aroound January 3rd- so it it the tilt and not the distance to the Sun that gives us seasons).

Answer 9

From different angles, the view from Earth depends. For example, if you were in a certain place, and the Earth rotated, then you looked at the moon, it would be in a different phase. The moon is also moving, so when the two move, every night when you look up the moon should be slightly different because of our angle.

Another example is the Sun. When Summer goes to Autumn to Winter, the Sun sets in and rises in the opposite it was before. The Sun does not move, so its our angle caused from rotation of Earth that causes our change of view.

Answer 10

During formation. The motes of dust that first came together impacted each other at oblique angles and set each other spinning and the larger rocks each put their spins together whenever they would fuse or sent each other spinning in new ways if they bounced off of each other.

The physics of angular momentum gives us exact numbers of how fast and in what direction the contents of our solar system should spin (the net value- how much all added together,) and gives us the expectation that the majority of it should end up spinning in mostly the same direction and nearly the same plane, aside from the wobbles in any unbalanced object that spins.
