Rotate, Revolve, and Tilt

The video explains how everything around us is in motion, focusing on Earth's rotation and revolution. It describes how Earth's rotation on its axis causes day and night, while its tilt and revolution around the sun lead to seasonal changes. The video uses a globe and lamp to demonstrate these concepts, highlighting the differences in sunlight exposure and resulting climate variations, particularly around the equator.

What is the imaginary line called on which Earth rotates?

• Equator

• Axis

• Meridian

• Longitude

How does Earth's tilt affect the seasons?

• It alters the speed of Earth's rotation.

• It affects the amount of sunlight different parts of Earth receive.

• It changes the distance between Earth and the moon.

• It causes the sun to move closer to Earth.

When North America is tilted towards the sun, what season is it experiencing?

• Winter

• Summer

• Autumn

How long does it take for Earth to complete one revolution around the sun?

• 12 months

• 365 days

• 30 days
