The northern hemisphere is tilted away. while that's tilted away, gentle from the sunlight hits at a extra indirect attitude. this potential an identical quantity of photograph voltaic gets unfold over a extra physically powerful component to the floor, ensuing in much less heating. additionally, photograph voltaic has to pass by a extra physically powerful distance of atmosphere.this enables extra photograph voltaic to be scattered away to area earlier it reaches the floor, inflicting much extra cooling. an identical consequences happen interior the southern hemisphere, yet on opposite months, because of the fact while the north pole is tilted faraway from the sunlight, the different pole is tilted in the direction of it. the lean result's plenty extra beneficial than the Earth's various distance from the sunlight, because of the fact the area would not in all likelihood selection that plenty, so the lean consequences crush the area consequences.

The angle of the sun is extremely slanted. When it's slanted, as opposed to a straight 90 degree angle, you get less sunlight radiation because the angle spreads the area out.
Think of it like this. If you spray painted two pieces of paper the exact same amount, one directly above the paper and one at an angle, which would have a thicker layer or paint?

In winter, because of Earth's tilt on its axis and its position in its orbit around the sun, sunlight coming in to the Northern Hemisphere is at a greater angle than in summer. Check this website for some good graphics illustrating all this ==>http://www.astronomynotes.com/nakedeye/s10.htm
