The slant rays relate to the seasons because the direct rays shine right on a spot and that makes summer. But as the earth tilts the rays are not as strong and not as bright so if its not a direct its slanted which gives it different seasons.!!

What do seasons depend on?

Seasons depend on the tilt of the Earth's axis as it orbits the Sun. The angle of the Sun's rays hitting the Earth's surface changes throughout the year, causing different parts of the Earth to receive more or less sunlight, resulting in seasons.


What is the relationship between the direct rays of the Sun and the seasons?

When the Sun's rays are more direct (closer to perpendicular to the surface of the ground at midday) it is hotter (some would call it "summer") When furthest from direct it is colder ("winter") between winter and summer there is spring and between summer and winter there is fall.


Is differential heating related to season?

Yes, differential heating is related to the seasons. During different seasons, the angle at which sunlight hits the Earth changes, which leads to varying amounts of heating across different latitudes and seasons. This differential heating contributes to the changes in weather patterns and temperatures that we observe throughout the year.


It summer in Zimbabwe when it winter in PolandWhy?

This is because the equator is above Zimbabwe and is below Poland. It's very simple, during the autumunal equinox, the rays of the sun are coming from the Northern part of the world. The seasons all have to do with Earth's tilt and the rays of the sun.


How are seasons in the northern hemisphere related to the seasons in the Southern Hemisphere?

It is winter in the northern hemisphere when it tilts away from the sun, and summer in the southern hemisphere when it tilts towards the sun. It is this tilting that creates the seasons.

What parts of the earth are there the greatest changes in seasons because of the slant of the sun's rays?

The regions nearest to the poles experience the greatest changes in seasons due to the slant of the sun's rays. These areas receive sunlight at extreme angles, leading to significant variations in daylight hours and temperatures throughout the year. This phenomenon results in distinct seasons such as long days in summer and long nights in winter.

Explain how the altitude of a right cone is related or not related to the slant height of the same cone.?

The altitude of a right cone is the perpendicular distance from the base to the apex, while the slant height is the distance from the apex to any point on the edge of the base along the cone's surface. These two measurements are related through the Pythagorean theorem; if the radius of the base is known, the slant height can be calculated using the formula ( l = \sqrt{h^2 + r^2} ), where ( l ) is the slant height, ( h ) is the altitude, and ( r ) is the radius of the base. Thus, while they are distinct measurements, the altitude and slant height are interconnected through the geometry of the cone.
