The northern hemisphere receives fewer direct rays from the sun in January.
Northern. That's why it gets colder in winter in the north.
If you are in the southern hemisphere, then June the midsummer month in the northern hemisphere is the midwinter month in the southern hemisphere. This means that the length of days are indeed shorter and there is less direct sunlight in the southern hemisphere in the month of June.
yes
No, when the North Pole is tilted toward the sun, the Northern Hemisphere experiences more daylight hours. This tilt results in longer days and shorter nights during the summer months in that hemisphere. Conversely, the Southern Hemisphere experiences fewer daylight hours during this time. This phenomenon is due to the axial tilt of the Earth as it orbits the sun.

This happens because of the tilt of Earth's axis. During the summer in the Northern Hemisphere, that part of the Earth is tilted towards the Sun, receiving more direct sunlight and causing warmer temperatures. At the same time, the Southern Hemisphere is tilted away from the Sun, experiencing winter with fewer daylight hours and cooler temperatures.

fewer ripples in a direct current when alternating is converted to direct current
why there is fewer temperate forests in southern hemisphere
The Southern Hemisphere has more water than the Eastern Hemisphere, as it is covered by a larger proportion of ocean compared to the Eastern Hemisphere. This is due to the Southern Hemisphere containing a higher percentage of oceanic surface area and fewer large landmasses.
Yes, there are more visible stars in the southern hemisphere than in the northern hemisphere because the southern hemisphere has fewer large cities and less light pollution, which allows for better visibility of stars. Additionally, the southern hemisphere has the center of the Milky Way galaxy, which contains more stars than the outer regions where the northern hemisphere is situated.
No, the Rainer Paradise Ranger Station receives an average of around 70-80 inches of rainfall annually.
Relative to the southern hemisphere we are farther away during the Winter. The distance from the Sun is not actually what determines our seasons though. Instead it is the tilt of the Earth that matters. When tilted away either hemisphere gets fewer hours of daylight, has the light spread 'thinner' over any portion of land, and receives light through a thicker portion of atmosphere (which diffuses some of the light.) If this sounds confusing a diagram should make it crystal clear.
The Southern Hemisphere westerlies are more persistent and stronger than in the Northern Hemisphere because there are fewer land masses to disrupt their flow. In the Southern Hemisphere, the westerlies can travel more freely over the vast expanse of ocean, allowing them to maintain their strength and consistency. In contrast, in the Northern Hemisphere, the westerlies are slowed down and disrupted by land masses like North America and Eurasia.
No, most tornadoes in the southern hemisphere rotate clockwise. Additionally, some tornadoes, called anticyclonic tornadoes, rotate clockwise in the northern hemisphere. Fewer than 1% of tornadoes are anticyclonic.
