What is the tilt of the earth for winter?
In summer the suns rays travel directly to the surface at a steep angle, so are still warm. In winter the rays strike at a shallower angle, and cool down rapidly as they travel a longer distance through the atmosphere before reaching the surface.
What is the relationship between the Earth and sun that causes the seasons to occur?
The seasons we experience on Earth, where we see more daylight in the summer and less in the winter, come about due to the tilt in the earths axis. This tilt of 23.5° to the horizontal means that during its progression around the sun in one year, the northern hemisphere will `lean` towards the sun more at one part of the cycle, giving rise to summer months for the northern hemisphere and winter months for the southern hemisphere. Six months later, with the earth on the other side of the sun, the tilt causes the northern hemisphere to be less exposed to the sun, tilting away from it. This gives winter for the northern hemisphere (less daylight hours and lower sun during the day) and summer for the summer hemisphere.
What causes there to be different seasons in the different hemispheres on the earth?
There is a lot of land in the north; that makes the summers hotter and the winters colder. There is a lot of ocean in the south; that makes the seasons milder.The earth is nearest the sun in January and farthest in July; that makes northern winter warmer and summer cooler. It also makes southern summer hotter and winter colder.
Why does wearing white on a hot summer day keep you cool?
Wearing White doesn't attract the sun. On the other hand, black and any dark colors attract the sun in the summer because it is dark and the the suns UV rays can see black better than white.

What is the difference between winter and summer?
Winter is the coldest season of the year, characterized by shorter days, colder temperatures, and potentially snowfall in some regions. Summer, on the other hand, is the warmest season with longer days, higher temperatures, and typically more sunshine. The primary difference lies in the temperature and weather patterns experienced during each season.
What is the tilt of the earth for winter?
