Is the earth axis straight up and down?

No earth's axis is tilted, this tilt shifts over time.

Axis


What the axis of the Earth?

straight line from North Pole to South Pole


Is it possible for earth to spin off its axis?

no it is not. the earth is straight up and down. so is the sun.


What is an imaginary straight line around which an object such as earth rotates?

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.


Why aren't you tilted from earths axis?

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.


If earth's axis were straight up and down relative to the sun?

Then we wouldn't have any seasons.

What is a straight line around which earth turns?

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.


What is an imaginary line drawn through earth from the North to South pole?

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.


Why the lines of latitude become smaller as the move to the poles?

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...=)


What evidence can you provide to support the claim that the Earth is rotating on its axis?

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.
