Would it be hotter if the hemisphere when it is tilted toward or away from the sun?
it would be hotter if it were tilted toward it as it would be getting more direct sunlight than the other hemisphere
How do use solar in a sentence?
"The solar rays are hotter on the equator than in the northern hemisphere."
Where is it hot on Christmas day?
in the southern hemisphere, where the seasons are the opposite from the northern hemisphere. that means its summer during christmas. also in northern hemisphere, the closer you are to the equator the hotter its going to be, even in December.
Which hemisphere is hottest?
The Southern Hemisphere tends to be hotter than the Northern Hemisphere because it has a higher percentage of water. Water heats up and cools down more slowly than land, so the Southern Hemisphere experiences milder temperatures.
Why is it cold in the north hemisphere when is hot in the south hemisphere?
Because while Earth is in its rotation, depending on what position it is, different parts of it are reflected by light, and different parts are not, which makes them hotter or colder.
When earth closest to the sun the northern hemisphere is in the winter why is this true?
When Earth is closest to the sun the Southern Hemisphere receives more of the sun's rays, making it hotter, or summer there, and winteri nthe north.
When Earth is closest to the sun the Northern Hemisphere is in winter. Why is this true?
When Earth is closest to the sun the Southern Hemisphere receives more of the sun's rays, making it hotter, or summer there, and winteri nthe north.
When earth is closest to the sun the northern hemisphere is in winter why this is true?
When Earth is closest to the sun the Southern Hemisphere receives more of the sun's rays, making it hotter, or summer there, and winteri nthe north.
Which is hotter southern or northern?
Overall, southern regions tend to be hotter than northern regions due to their closer proximity to the equator. However, there can be variations based on specific locations and environmental factors.
Why are the reasons you experience seasons and changes in daylight hours in the northern hemisphere?
When Winter turns to Summer in the Northern Hemisphere, temperatures seem to increase on average. This is because Earth evolves around the Sun at an angle; and during the summer part of the revolution, the northern hemisphere tilts towards the sun, causing it to get hotter and temperatures to increase.
Is summer hotter because earth is closest to the sun during this time?
No. In fact Earth is at its farthest point from the sun in early July and at its closest point in January. Earth's axis of rotation is tilted so relative to its orbit, so each hemisphere is alternately tilted toward and away from the sun. When the northern hemisphere is tilted toward the sun it experiences summer while the southern hemisphere, which is tilted away, experiences winter. When a hemisphere is tilted toward the sun, sunlight strikes the surface there at a steeper angle, so the sunlight is less spread out than it would be hitting at a shallow angle. The more concentrated sunlight results in greater heating.
Why is the southern hemisphere warmer than the northern hemisphere?
No, the northern hemisphere summer is hotter when you look at the planetary average. The reason is that there is more land in the northern hemisphere and when the sunlight hits the land it bounces off and heats up the air much more than when sunlight hits water. So whichever side with more land will have a hotter average summer, in the earth's case, by about 4 degrees Fahrenheit. On the other hand, the amount of water in your local environment has a much greater influence on the heat of your summer than which hemisphere you're in.
