To "slightly" change the tilt of Earth's axis would not require a particularly large or fast-moving object. But to "seriously" alter the planet's orientation would require something with a large fraction of the Earth's mass, from one to five percent or more (the larger asteroids Vesta or Pallas for example). However, a collision of that magnitude would have much more serious environmental effects than merely shifting the tilt of the Earth.
What else can I help you with?
How is the temperature affected on earths tilt?
The revolution of the earth defines its tilt. The "tilt" is the angle between the axis of rotation of the earth and the axis of its revolution around the sun. Both these axes must exist to define the tilt. If the earth did not rotate on an axis of its own, or if it did not revolve around the sun, it would be meaningless to speak of a tilt.
If the tilt of the earth axis was completely removed what would happen to the seasons?
Since the seasons are a result of Earth's tilt and its orbit around the sun, a retrograde rotation would not have a significant impact on the seasons.
How would you describe what causes the seasons?
its earths tilt on its axis orbiting the sun
Is it true that without the earth's tilt there will not be seasons?
Yes, there would.
If the earth didn't tilt describe how our climate would be different?
we will not have seasons
Would earth change tilt if stopped spinning?
The "tilt" is related to Earth's axis of rotation; both the axis of rotation and the tilt would be undefined if there were no rotation.
If earths tilt didn't change would earth have seasons?
There would be no seasons on Earth if the Earth's axis had no tilt because throughout the year the Earth would get an equal amount of sun everywhere.
How long does the axis of the earth exend?
Earth's axial tilt is about 23.5 degrees. an invisible line around which an object spins.
What would happe tilt of the earth was 15?
If Earth had a tilt of 15 degrees we would experience much less variation in weather during the different seasons.
What would happen to the seasons if the Earth changed it's tilt?
it for the different tilt by scarlette lol
What would happen if the earth tilt at 0 degrees?
If the Earth had a tilt of zero degree, there would be no pronounced seasons and variations in the durations of day and night throughout the year.
How would conditions on earth change for plants and animals if the earth did not tilt?
well there would be no seasons
Without a tilt in the Earth's axis of rotation there would be no what?
There would be no seasons.
Earth would not have seasons if there was no?
Tilt. The tilt of the earth of 23 degrees means that the parts closest to the sun have summer and the other side of the world has winter.
What if earth had no 23.5 degrees tilt?
If the Earth had no axial tilt, there would be no seasons. At the North Pole and the South Pole, the Sun would always appear just on the horizon; it would be a land of eternal twilight.
How is the temperature affected on earths tilt?
The revolution of the earth defines its tilt. The "tilt" is the angle between the axis of rotation of the earth and the axis of its revolution around the sun. Both these axes must exist to define the tilt. If the earth did not rotate on an axis of its own, or if it did not revolve around the sun, it would be meaningless to speak of a tilt.
What would the angle of insolation for NY be if the earth had no tilt?
If the Earth had no tilt, the angle of insolation for New York would be consistent year-round at 90 degrees, meaning sunlight would hit the location directly overhead. This would result in more direct and intense sunlight compared to the varying angles experienced with Earth's current tilt.
