no
Here are some sentences.The axis of our planet is tilted.Who were the Axis powers in World War II?
The axis is actually an imaginary line that the Earth spins around. It represents the tilt of the Earth relative to its orbit.
right in the middle of the earth
yes it does
No.
No earth's axis is tilted, this tilt shifts over time.
Axis
straight line from North Pole to South Pole
no it is not. the earth is straight up and down. so is the sun.
An imaginary straight line around which an object like Earth rotates is called its axis. Earth's axis is an imaginary line that runs from the North Pole to the South Pole, around which the planet rotates as it orbits the Sun.
But I AM ! The earth's axis is a straight line between the north and south poles,through the middle of the earth. Since I live in Chicago, the line straight down fromthe top of my head is tilted about 48 degrees from the axis when I'm awake, andabout 42 degrees from it when I'm asleep. I am almost never parallel to earth's axis.
Then we wouldn't have any seasons.
The spin on Earth on its axis (Apex 2021)
The straight line around which the Earth turns is known as the axis of rotation. This imaginary line runs from the North Pole to the South Pole, tilted at an angle of approximately 23.5 degrees relative to its orbit around the Sun. The rotation of the Earth around this axis is what causes the cycle of day and night.
The straight line connecting the poles is the earth's rotational axis. The lines along the earth's surface from pole to pole are meridians or lines of longitude.
Since the earth is on an axis its impossible to go in a straight line because the earth is round. So the lines get smaller because of the axis and the tilt and some of it has to do with the earth being round (like most planets...=)
One piece of evidence supporting the claim that the Earth is rotating on its axis is the Coriolis effect. This effect causes moving objects, such as winds and ocean currents, to curve instead of moving in a straight line. This phenomenon is a result of the Earth's rotation and provides evidence that the Earth is indeed spinning on its axis.
