How do the tilt of earths axis and earths movement around the sun causes seasons?
Earth's tilted axis causes the seasons. Throughout the year, different parts of Earth receive the Sun's most direct rays. So, when the North Pole tilts toward the Sun, it's summer in the northern hemisphere. And when the South Pole tilts toward the Sun, it's winter in the Northern Hemisphere.
When the South Pole is tilted toward the Sun is it summer in both hemispheres?
No, that would be impossible, because the Earth is basically an orb -- round. When the South Pole is tilted toward the Sun, it's summer in the Southern Hemisphere -- and Winter in the Northern Hemisphere.
What happens during midwinter when the North Pole is tilted away from the Sun?
When it is winter in the northern hemisphere and summer in the southern hemisphere. The North Pole is tilted away from the Sun in December. (That means that the Northern Hemisphere is also tilted away from the Sun in December.)
When someone says that the wind direction today is south does this mean that the wind is blowing toward the south or from the south?
The wind is blowing toward the south.
Seasons in the two hemispheres are opposite Explain how this supports the statement that seasons are not caused by Earth's changing distance from the Sun?
The axis of the Earth is tilted which gives us seasons. Only one of the hemispheres, north or south, can be tilted toward the Sun, while the other is tilted away. If the northern hemisphere is tipped toward the sun, then it is warmer and the days are longer, which gives us summer. But the days are shorter and it is winter in the Southern Hemisphere. If the northern hemisphere is tilted away from the sun, it is colder and that gives us winter. But in the southern hemisphere it is then summer. In Australia or South America, you can have Christmas dinner on the beach if you want.
When the south end of earths the axis is tilted toward the sun?
it is winter in the northern hemisphere
When the north end of earths axis is tilted toward the sun what season is it in the southern hemishphere?
At its full extent, the South Pole is tilted about 23.5 degrees toward or away from the Sun.
In winter which end of the earths axis is tilted away from the sun?
south
When the South Pole is tilted toward the Sun what season is it in Florida?
Summer in the southern hemisphere -- when the South Pole is tilted toward the the Sun, it's winter in the northern hemisphere -- including the state of Florida.
When it is summer at the South Pole what happens?
the Southern Hemisphere is tilted away from the Sun, both the Southern and Northern Hemispheres are tilted toward the Sun, the Northern Hemisphere is tilted away from the Sun, and the Northern Hemisphere is tilted toward the Sun.
When its summer in the northern hemisphere what is in the southern hemisphere why?
WinterWhen the north end of the earths axis is tilted toward the sun, the northern hemisphere has summer. At the same time, the south end of earths axis is tilted away from the sun. As a result the southerns hemisphere has winter.
When the South Pole is tilted toward the sun what season does the US and Canada start?
Your answer depends on where you are. At the South Pole when the Earth is tilted toward the Sun, it's summer.
What two things causes the earths four seasons?
The Earth rotates on its axis causing either the North or South Hemishere to tilt towards the sun which ever hemishere is tilted toward the sun it is probably spring or summer.
When the north axis is tilted toward the sun what season is it in south America?
Fall or winter.
What is the significants about the earths axis?
The earth is tilted 23.5 degrees. This is what creates the earths seasons. The two hemispheres (north and south) are always on opposite seasons.
The south end of earth's axis is tilted toward the sun in?
Southern Hemisphere's summer season.
Is the south end of Earth's axis tilted toward the sun in march?
The 'equinoxes' occur in March and September. At those times, neither pole is tilted toward or away from the sun. At the time of the June solstice, the north pole reaches its maximum tilt toward the sun, whereas at the time of the December solstice, the south pole is at its maximum tilt toward the sun.
