How do changes in the angle of the sun's rays on the earth cause seasons in the northern hemisphere?

Changes in the angle of the sun's rays on the Earth cause seasons in the northern hemisphere because when the sun's rays hit the Earth at a more direct angle, it provides more concentrated heat and longer days, leading to warmer temperatures and summer. Conversely, when the sun's rays hit the Earth at a less direct angle, it diffuses the heat and results in colder temperatures and winter.


What is the sun strongest and where on earth is it most direct?

The sun is strongest at the equator because of its direct angle, resulting in more intense solar radiation. The most direct sunlight on Earth occurs in the tropics, where the sun's rays hit the Earth's surface more vertically compared to higher latitudes.


What is a source of charged particles that hit the earth?

The Sun is a source of charged particles that hit the Earth. These particles, known as solar wind, consist mainly of electrons and protons. When they interact with the Earth's magnetic field, they can create phenomena such as the auroras.


How can it be night time one place on Earth and day time in another place at the same time?

Because as the earth turns and the sun does not we get the light from the sun as we turn and face the sun, when we keep turning we also turn away fron the light of the sun and another part of the earth faces the light, that is why when it day here its night in India or the opposite side of the earth.


When does no direct sun light hit earth?

Direct sunlight does not hit all parts of the Earth at the same time. It does not hit areas experiencing nighttime due to the rotation of the Earth on its axis. Additionally, during sunset and sunrise, sunlight is less direct and more spread out.
