Question

Earth is tilted by 23 and half degrees with reference to its circle of illumination. Due to this the Northern and the Southern hemispheres sometimes point towards or away from the sun depending on the time of the year, varying the amount of light they receive. What changes because of this axial tilt of the Earth and its position?

Answer 1

Answer:

Solstices and shifting solar declinations are a result of Earth's 23.5° axial tilt as it orbits the sun. Throughout the year, this means that either the Northern or Southern Hemisphere is tilted toward the sun and receives the maximum intensity of the sun's rays.
