When it is summer which way is the earth tilted?

Answer 1

The Earth tilts on it's axis (relative to it's orbit around the sun) and that's why we have seasons, in winter the sun is low on the horizon in the northern hemisphere (we are tilted away from the sun) and about 32 deg. above the equator in summer, so it will be at the highest point all year on June 22.

Answer 2

The only distinctive property of the Sun's position in the sky during the summer is that it is higher above the horizon at any given time of day. This results in its rays being more concentrated and therefore effectively warmer, resulting in the characteristic high temperatures of summer. As a result of being higher above the horizon the days (daylight hours) are also longer, further increasing the heating effect. These distinctions are effectively lost in the tropics where the the sun is always high in the sky and the days about the same length.

Answer 3

The Earth orbits around the sun.
During the months of summer, the earth will be on the left {aka West}. During the Winter the earth will be on the right {aka East}, and fall in on the bottum {aka South}, and spring in on top {aka North}. :)

Your welcome.

Answer 4

Throughout the entire portion of the orbit that the earth occupies between December and March.

That part of the orbit includes the point where the earth is closest to the sun ... reached sometime

during the first few days of January.

Answer 5

During the summer months in the Northern Hemisphere, the Earth is tilted towards the Sun. This tilt causes the Sun's rays to hit the Northern Hemisphere more directly, leading to longer days and warmer temperatures.

Answer 6

Everywhere. The earth tilts toward the sun at different times during its rotation, and even the poles experience a mild form of summer.

Answer 7

When it is summer, the Earth is tilted toward the sun.
