yes, it is. since the earth's axis is tilted, let's say ur in the northern hemisphere, then when the north side is tilted toward the sun then it's summer. if it's tilted sideways so it's not tilted toward or away from the sun, then it's either spring or fall.

How do the tilt of earths axis and earths movements around the sun cause season?

Seasons are caused as the Earth, tilted on it’s axis, travels in a loop around the sun each year. For example, summer happens in the hemisphere tilted towards the sun, winter happens in the hemisphere tilted away from the sun. The poles stay cool because they are never in a direct path of sun light.(those are just examples they’re not really part of the answer.)

How do you now the earths axis is tilted?

i know the earth axis is tilted because some part of the world get sun and the other part does not one part is night an the other is day because the are tilted to the sun so its warm


Does sunlight follow earth's axis?

Sunlight does not follow the Earth's axis. The Earth's seasons are determined, in part, by the Sun's position to the Earth's axis.


The changes in seasons are caused by earths what.?

Spin, the spin makes one side of the world face the Sun and the other stars


Is the eliptical orbit of the earth the main cause for seasons on earth?

There's no connection between the earth's distance from the sun and its seasons. In 2010, the earth's distance from the sun was minimum on January 3 ... in the middle of northern hemisphere Winter and southern hemisphere Summer. The distance will be maximum on July 6 ... in the middle of northern hemisphere Summer and southern hemisphere Winter.


When the north end of the earths rotation axis is pointing at the sun what happens?

The northern part of the Earth warms up. It is the Northern Summer.


What activity happens between the earth and the sun to determine the four seasons?

it is the Earth tilted on its own axis. the sun shines less on the further away part of our planet, and more on the closer part. on the northern hemisphere, when it is summer, it is closer to the sun because it is tilted. since the world is rotating and revolving and on a tilted axis, we have the seasons. if we did not have a 23.5 degree tilt on our axis, it would be fall/spring all of the time.


Do we have diff. seasons because of Earth's rotation?

The seasons are different due to a number of factors: The orbital position (Earth's orbit is an ellipse - not a circle), it's rotation (it 'wobbles' on it's axis) and the influence of the moon on the tides all play a part in the changing seasons.


Reasen for spring in the southern hemisphere?

Southern colonies may be warm but that doesn't mean it is summer all the time seasons are caused when the the earth moves around the sun. If northern part of earth is near the sun( FYI the axis causes the tilt) it is summer there and winter in the southern colonies.


How earth's orbit around the sun determines the seasons of earth?

they are not determined they are a leeway so that is a rough estimate so we dont know the actual seasons.


How does the position of the sun chnge in the sky with the change of seasons?

The Earth orbits around the Sun. The orbit is elliptical - all orbits are - but the "eccentricity" of the orbit is pretty small. That means, it's only a little different from a circle. The path of the Earth around the Sun doesn't really contribute to the seasons. The Earth spins like a gyroscope, and like a gyro, it is VERY stable. But the gyro is tilted, and it STAYS tilted. The "tilt angle" isn't great; it is approximately 23.5 degrees. It is this tilt, which we call "axial tilt", that causes the seasons.
