What determines a planet's seasons?
Distance from the sun during rotation.
Which leaf shape predominates in sunny and rainy seasons?
penis shaped leaves because it needs to "get hot" during rainy seasons.
Why don't solar and lunar eclipses occur during every lunar orbit?
Solar and lunar eclipses do not occur during every lunar orbit because the Moon's orbit is tilted about 5 degrees relative to Earth's orbital plane. This tilt means that during most full moons and new moons, the Earth, Moon, and Sun are not perfectly aligned. Eclipses only happen when the Sun, Earth, and Moon align closely enough, which occurs during specific points in their orbits known as "eclipse seasons." These eclipse seasons happen approximately every six months, allowing for a limited number of eclipses each year.
Which planets poles are facing directly at the sun?
The planets whose poles are facing directly at the Sun are Uranus and Mercury. Uranus has an extreme axial tilt of about 98 degrees, which causes its poles to be oriented almost horizontally relative to its orbit, allowing one pole to face the Sun during its long seasons. Mercury, while not tilted significantly, has a unique orbit that can position its poles in direct sunlight at certain times due to its eccentric orbit and slow rotation.
How do you know the distance between the earth and the sun is not a factor in why there are seasons?
The distance between the Earth and the Sun does play a role in seasonal temperature variations, but it is not the primary reason for the seasons. The main factor driving the seasons is the tilt of the Earth's axis relative to its orbit around the Sun. This tilt causes different parts of the Earth to receive varying amounts of solar energy throughout the year, leading to the four seasons.
What determines a planet's seasons?
Distance from the sun during rotation.
Why does earth get very cold or very hot?
It has to do with the rotation of the earth and how far away it is from the sun during the different seasons.
Why does it rain during war?
Because the seasons are the seasons. It rains when there is no war also.
Why do different stars appear during different seasons?
Different stars appear in the night sky during different seasons because Earth's orbit around the sun causes us to see different portions of the sky at different times of the year. As the Earth moves, our perspective changes, making certain stars visible or hidden based on their position relative to us. This phenomenon is why we see different constellations and stars during different seasons.
Why is Orion a fall winter constellation?
Orion is a fall/winter constellation in the northern hemisphere because it is best seen in the night sky during these seasons. During fall and winter, Earth's rotation places Orion in a position where it is visible for longer periods of time during the night.
If the earth rotated in a perfect circle then would you have seasons?
Yes. The change of the seasons occurs because the earth's axis of rotation is tilted slightly from its plane of rotation about the sun. Seasonal changes are not due to the eccentricity of the earth's orbit, which is slight. In fact, Earth is at aphelion, the point in its orbit where it is farthest from the sun, during the first half of July.
Does high relative humidity means it is rainy season?
Not necessarily. High relative humidity indicates the amount of moisture in the air, which can occur during rainy seasons but can also be influenced by factors like proximity to bodies of water or other weather patterns. Rainy seasons are typically characterized by consistent and significant precipitation over a period of time.
Why desert coolers are less effective during rainy seasons?
because of humidity
Which leaf shape predominates in sunny and rainy seasons?
penis shaped leaves because it needs to "get hot" during rainy seasons.
In a rotation which points are moved the greatest distance?
In a rotation, the points located farthest from the axis of rotation move the greatest distance. This is because the distance traveled by a point during rotation is proportional to its radius from the axis; thus, points farther away have a larger circular path. Consequently, any point at the maximum radius experiences the greatest linear displacement during the rotation.
Why do constellations change with seasons?
Constellations appear to change with the seasons because Earth's orbit around the sun causes us to see different parts of the night sky during different times of the year. As Earth moves, the position of the stars relative to the sun changes, causing different constellations to become visible at different times.
How are the 4 seasons made?
The seasonal shift comes from the tilt of the earth's rotational axis. During winter the north pole will be more distant from the sun, relative the south pole; and vice versa during summer.
