Which hemisphere is tilted toward the sun when it is winter in the northern hemisphere?
The southern hemisphere is tilted toward the sun when it is winter in the northern hemisphere. This is because Earth's axis is tilted, causing the opposite hemisphere to receive more direct sunlight during winter in the northern hemisphere.
Does the Northern Hemisphere experiences winter when Earth is farthest from the sun?
No, the Northern Hemisphere experiences winter when it is tilted away from the sun, which is during the period when Earth is closest to the sun in its elliptical orbit. The distance from the sun does not significantly affect the seasons on Earth.
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.
When Earth is closer to the Sun during the year what season is it?
When Earth is closer to the Sun, it is in winter in the Northern Hemisphere and summer in the Southern Hemisphere. The distance between Earth and the Sun (known as Earth's orbital distance) doesn't significantly affect the seasons; the tilt of Earth's axis is the primary factor that determines the seasons.

Which hemisphere is tilted toward the sun when it is winter in the northern hemisphere?

Why is it summer in the southern hemisphere and winter in the northern hemisphere?
because of the tilt of the earth
Why does winter have to be the shortest day of the year?
During winter in the Northern Hemisphere, the earth is tilted by its axis so the Northern Hemisphere is away from the sun and the Southern Hemisphere is closer to the sun. During winter in the Southern Hemisphere, the earth axis is tilted the other way, so that the Northern Hemisphere is closer to the sun and the Southern Hemisphere is farther away.
The northern hemisphere has winter when Earth is far from the sun?
True
How is earth tilted when it is winter in the Northern hemisphere?

When are you closer to the sun?
The closet you can be to the Sun on Earth is at 12:00 in the middle of the summer.I don't know the answer but I do know this is wrong. The sun is closest to the Earth in winter time.Another AnswerEarth is closest to the sun during a particular moment on January 3rd, when it's winter in the northern hemisphere and summer in the southern hemisphere.
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 in June is it summer in the southern hemisphere and winter in the northern hemisphere?
