How does the tilt of earths axis account for differences in the area of sunlight each hemisphere receives during the summer solstice and winter solstice?
The tilt of Earth's axis, approximately 23.5 degrees, causes one hemisphere to receive more direct sunlight during its summer solstice while the opposite hemisphere experiences winter solstice. During the summer solstice, the tilted hemisphere is angled towards the Sun, resulting in longer days and concentrated solar energy, leading to warmer temperatures. Conversely, during the winter solstice, the same hemisphere is tilted away from the Sun, causing shorter days and more diffuse sunlight, resulting in cooler temperatures. This axial tilt is the primary reason for seasonal variations in sunlight distribution across the Earth.
True or false during the summer solstice a location will have its longest day and least direct sunlight?

For example, New York City has about 15 hours of sunlight on the summer solstice and about 9 hours on the winter solstice. Jacksonville has about 14 hours of sunlight on the summer solstice and about 10 hours on the winter solstice.
How do the areas of sunlight in the two hemispheres change over the year?
The areas of sunlight in the two hemispheres change throughout the year due to the tilt of the Earth's axis. During the summer solstice, one hemisphere receives more direct sunlight and experiences longer days, while the other hemisphere receives less direct sunlight and has shorter days. This pattern reverses during the winter solstice.
Which solstice does the southern hemisphere get the most direct sunlight?
The southern hemisphere experiences the most direct sunlight during the December solstice, also known as the summer solstice in the southern hemisphere. This is when the South Pole is tilted towards the Sun, causing longer daylight hours and warmer temperatures in the southern hemisphere.
