Answers
Answer:
place the stick north south direction parallel.
Explanation:
not sure
Explanation:
Sun's angular height in the sky over the course of weeks and months. It is the tilt of the Earth's axis which causes the height of the Sun's path to change. In this activity, we will measure this change to infer the amount of the Earth's tilt. This activity shows that as the height of the Sun changes, it casts different length shadows at midday. By recording these midday shadow lengths and the height of the shadow stick, we can "reconstruct" the situations from these days and measure the angular height directly. The
difference of the angular heights of the Sun between an equinox (September 21 or March
21) and a solstice (December 21 or June 21) is equal to the tilt of the Earth's axis, 23.50
