What? No...the earths axis has been tilted for hundreds of millions if not billions of years. If your question is: Did the earthquake in Chile cause a variation in the tilt of the earth's axis? Then the answer is yes, very slightly, but noticeable.

How many degrees was the Earth's Axis tilted during the Haiti Earthquake?

The Earth's axis was not tilted during the Haiti Earthquake. The earthquake occurred due to the movement of tectonic plates along a fault line beneath the Earth's surface, causing the ground to shake. This movement did not affect the tilt of the Earth's axis.


Did Chile earthquake shift Earth's tilt?

Yes, the 2010 Chile earthquake was powerful enough to cause a slight shift in the Earth's axis, estimated to be around 3 inches (8 cm). This shift affected the Earth's rotation speed and slightly changed its shape.

How did the Chile earthquake tipped the earth?

The Chile earthquake, powerful as it was, was not nearly powerful enough to tilt the earth. If you imagine a large bell in a cathedral and you hit that bell with a spoon, that is about the effect that an earthquake has on the earth as a whole. It caused some MAJOR destruction and caused Chile to pay millions for the damage, and many people were killed or injured.

It is 36 degrees celsius in Santiago Chile Which way is the Earth tilted on it's axis?

The Earth is tilted on its axis causing the change in seasons. At 36 degrees Celsius in Santiago, Chile, it is likely experiencing summer in the Southern Hemisphere, meaning the Earth is tilted towards the Sun in that region.

What day was the earth tilted on?

The Earth's axial tilt varies between 22.1° and 24.5° with a 42,000 year period, and at present, the tilt is decreasing. The earth is currently tilted on an axis of 23.5 degrees. The amazing thing is every time there is a major earthquake the tilt of the earth changes. NASA just released findings that the recent earthquake in Chile changed the tilt of the earth and shortened our day by 1.26 millionths of a second. Sumatra earthquake in December 2004 shortened the length of a day by 6.8 millionths of a second. So to answer your question... The earth changes tilt constantly but the most recent change was on February 27 2010.


The fact the earth is tilted 23.5 degrees is responsible for what?

That is the cause of the seasons.
