explain with the help of a diagram, why seasons are reserved between northern and southern
Hemisphere
Answers
ANSWER: Seasons are reversed between the Northern and Southern hemisphere because during summer or winter, one part of the planet is more directly exposed to the rays of the sun than the other and this exposed part changes as the Earth revolves around the sun in its Orbit.
Explanation:
1. When the northern hemisphere are inclined towards the sun and the southern hemisphere is away from the Sun.
2. The rays of the sun are vertical at the Tropic of Cancer (23 1/2 degree North).
3. As the sun rays are more vertical and have longer duration, The northern hemisphere is more heat, it is a summer season here.
4. The situation in the southern hemisphere is just opposite.
5. The sun rays are more slanting.Therefore it is winter season in the southern hemisphere.
