During what season is Earth tilted the least?
The 'tilt' of the Earth's axis doesn't change. The axis always makes an angle of about 661/2 degrees with the plane of the Earth's orbit, and the north pole is always pointed toward the same spot in the sky, near the star Polaris. But as we ride around the sun in the course of a year, since the axis always points toward the same place, that means that the north pole is tilted toward the sun during half of the trip, and away from the sun during the other half. And there are two moments during the year when the axis is neither toward nor away from the sun ... those are always around March 21 and September 22. If you're on the half of Earth that's tilted toward the sun, then you have Spring and Summer. And if you're on the half of Earth that's tilted away from the sun, then you have Fall and Winter. (It has nothing to do with being closer or farther from the sun. It's all on account of the tilt.)
How is it winter on half the planet and summer on the other half?
The tilt of Earth's axis causes seasons by affecting the angle at which sunlight hits the surface. When one hemisphere is tilted toward the sun, it is summer there, while the other hemisphere is tilted away and experiences winter. This tilt, combined with Earth's orbit around the sun, creates a division of seasons between the northern and southern hemispheres.
What causes summer to be so warm?
If Earth's axis was not tilted, there would be no seasons. The seasons occur because the axis on which Earth turns is tilted with respect to the plane of Earth's orbit around the Sun. The North Pole is tilted toward the Sun for half of the year, and the South Pole is tilted toward the Sun for the other half of the year. The hemisphere that is tilted toward the Sun has a longer day, receives more of the Sun's rays, and receives them more directly than the hemisphere tilted away from the Sun. These conditions result in the season called summer.
which is true of pluto ?
Pluto has a moon that is about half its size
If the half-life of a radionuclide is 1 month is a sample of it completely decayed after 2 months?
No, it is not. If a radionuclide has a half-life of 1 month, half is gone after 1 month. Half of the half that is left will be gone after 2 months, and that will leave 1/4th of the original amount left after the second month.
Is the Earth's northern hemisphere is tilted away from the sun or toward the sun?
Away for half of the year, and toward for the other half of the year.
In June is the southern half of Earth tilted toward or away from the sun?
Away.
What is true when northern half of earth is tilted toward the sun?
it is summer in the northern hemisphere

What portion of the Earth's revolution around the sun is the Northern Hemisphere tilted toward the sun?
The Northern Hemisphere is tilted toward the Sun for approximately half of the Earth's revolution around the Sun, which lasts about six months. This period typically spans from the spring equinox in March to the autumn equinox in September. During this time, the Northern Hemisphere experiences warmer temperatures and longer daylight hours, leading to summer. Conversely, when the Northern Hemisphere is tilted away from the Sun, it experiences winter.
Why are its summer temperatures so high?
The Earth is tilted about 23 degrees from being straight up-and-down relative to the sun. When your half (northern or southern hemisphere) is tilted toward the sun, you get more direct sunlight and it's summer. When it's summer in one hemisphere, it's winter in the other.

How is Earths tilted axis is responsible for seasons?
earths axis is responsible for seasons because if its tilted toward the sun then it would be summer in the northern hemisphere and winter in the southern now if it was tilted away from the sun then it would be winter in the northern hemisphere and summer in the southern hemisphere
What differentiates day from night?
Day can be defined as the period during which one half of the Earth (or any planet) is facing the Sun as the planet rotates. Spherical objects are only 50% illuminated by any point source of light. The Sun, being wider than the Earth, does illuminate very slightly more than half of the Earth. Night then exists for the half of the planet facing away from the Sun. Except on the equinoxes (first day of Spring or Fall) the illuminated region is not equally divided between northern and southern hemispheres. The Earth is tilted on its rotational axis, so that one of the the two hemispheres is tilted toward the Sun or away from the Sun. The hemisphere tilted toward the Sun is more illuminated, and the days will be longer than the nights.
How is it winter on half the planet and summer on the other half?
The tilt of Earth's axis causes seasons by affecting the angle at which sunlight hits the surface. When one hemisphere is tilted toward the sun, it is summer there, while the other hemisphere is tilted away and experiences winter. This tilt, combined with Earth's orbit around the sun, creates a division of seasons between the northern and southern hemispheres.
