Causes of seasons

In which season is the Northern Hemisphere when the Earth's axis is tilted towards the Sun?

• Winter

• Spring

• Summer

• Autumn

What season occurs in the Northern Hemisphere when the Earth is in Position 1?

• Spring

• Summer

• Winter

• Autumn

What is the relationship between the Earth's orbit and the seasons?

• The Earth's orbit around the Sun, combined with its axial tilt, creates seasonal changes.

• The Earth's orbit is circular, which prevents seasonal changes.

• The Earth's orbit is elliptical, causing seasons to be longer in summer.

• The Earth's distance from the Sun does not affect the seasons.

What is the significance of the Earth's axial tilt?

• It is responsible for the changing seasons as the Earth orbits the Sun.

• It affects the Earth's gravitational pull on the Moon.

• It determines the length of a day on Earth.

• It influences the Earth's magnetic field.

What is the position of the Earth in summer in relation to the Sun?

• The Northern Hemisphere is tilted towards the Sun.

• The Southern Hemisphere is tilted towards the Sun.

• The Earth is perpendicular to the Sun's rays.

• The Earth is farthest from the Sun.

How does the axial tilt of the Earth influence climate?

• It leads to variations in climate and weather patterns throughout the year.

• It causes the Earth to experience constant temperatures year-round.

• It has no effect on climate or weather patterns.

• It results in increased solar radiation during winter months.

Why do we have different seasons in different hemispheres?

• Because the Earth is flat and not round.

• Because the distance from the Sun changes throughout the year.

• Because when one hemisphere is tilted towards the Sun, the other is tilted away from it.

• Because the Sun's intensity varies in different regions.

How does the tilt of the Earth affect the length of days and nights?

• It has no effect on the length of days and nights.

• The tilt causes variations in the length of days and nights throughout the year.

• The tilt makes days longer in winter and shorter in summer.

• The tilt only affects the length of nights, not days.

What causes the seasons on Earth?

• The distance from the Earth to the Moon

• The tilt of the Earth's axis and its orbit around the Sun

• The rotation of the Earth on its axis

• The gravitational pull of other planets

What happens to the sunlight during winter in the Northern Hemisphere?

• The sunlight is more direct and the days are longer.

• The sunlight is less direct and the days are shorter.

• The sunlight remains the same as in summer.

• The sunlight is blocked by clouds all day.
