How does the tilt of Earth’s axis and its movement around the sun play a part in the changing of the seasons in the Northern Hemisphere? my hypothesis is where the sun is the sun is the most its summer i need better explanation from professinals

I just answered this a couple of questions down from here.

thank you so much

can you help me with something damon?

This is hard UMMMMMMMmm

Damon you did not help me because i can't use this because a am doing a test and i have to explain it in my own words so thank you for that.

Michelle, you should just put it in your own words. Also, is this for Connexus?

i dont like connexus the home school thing is like i am in highschool right

Thx's, Calypso Z.

To understand how the tilt of Earth's axis and its movement around the sun contribute to the changing seasons in the Northern Hemisphere, we need to consider a few key factors.

Firstly, the Earth's axis is tilted at an angle of approximately 23.5 degrees relative to the plane of its orbit around the sun. This tilt remains constant throughout the year. As a result, during different times of the year, different parts of the Earth receive varying amounts of sunlight.

Secondly, as the Earth orbits around the sun in its elliptical path, there are specific points in its orbit that mark the beginning of each season: the summer solstice, winter solstice, spring equinox, and autumn equinox.

During the summer solstice, which occurs around June 21st in the Northern Hemisphere, the North Pole is tilted towards the sun. As a result, the Northern Hemisphere receives more direct sunlight, and the days are longer. This leads to warmer temperatures and the onset of summer.

Conversely, during the winter solstice, which occurs around December 21st in the Northern Hemisphere, the North Pole is tilted away from the sun. Consequently, the Northern Hemisphere receives less direct sunlight, and the days become shorter. This results in colder temperatures and the arrival of winter.

During the spring and autumn equinoxes, around March 20th and September 22nd respectively, the Earth's axis is not tilted towards or away from the sun. As a result, sunlight is distributed equally at all latitudes, and day and night are roughly equal in length. These transitional periods mark the start of spring and autumn, characterized by milder temperatures.

So, the combination of Earth's tilted axis and its movement around the sun causes the changing seasons in the Northern Hemisphere. The tilt determines the amount of sunlight that each hemisphere receives, while the movement around the sun determines the specific points in the Earth's orbit when each season begins.
