Question

I'll give 10 points to the first person to answer this question best.

When the northern hemisphere experiences summer, does it tilt toward the sun? explain why or why not

thanks

Answer 1

Northern solstice and southern solstice indicate the direction of the sun's movement. The northern solstice is in June on Earth, when the sun is directly over the Tropic of Cancer in the Northern Hemisphere, and the southern solstice is in December, when the sun is directly over the Tropic of Capricorn in the Southern Hemisphere. Some consider these terms to be the most neutral and unambiguous.

Answer 2

The Seasons in the Northern Hemisphere
We experience Summer in the Northern Hemisphere when the Earth is on that part of its orbit where the N. Hemisphere is oriented more toward the Sun and therefore the Sun rises higher in the sky and is above the horizon longer, and the rays of the Sun strike the ground more directly. Likewise, in the N. Hemisphere Winter the hemisphere is oriented away from the Sun, the Sun only rises low in the sky, is above the horizon for a shorter period, and the rays of the Sun strike the ground more obliquely.

Answer 3

It does expeience summer because it is closer to the sun clausing hotter heat waves to hit. The closer you are to the sun the hotter the heat wave will be becuase it takes less time for the wave to hit. The reason that it cools down at night is becuase you are farther away from the sun but you still maintain he heat becuase it is inside the hemisphere. If it is clear during the day and cloudy at night than the temp night actually warm up becuase the heat is kept in a smaller area. I hope that this answers your question

Answer 4

Yes, it tilts toward the sun. This is due to the gravitational pull of the sun and moon and the orbit of the earth around the sun. The earth is on a tilted axis...not straight up and down spinning. It wobbles as it goes around the sun. The moon and the sun pull on it.

Answer 5

At midsummer in the northen hemisphere the north pole experiences the "midnight sun" because the north pole is pointing toward the sun.
