How does the tilt of earth’s axis influence the change of seasons? |
|
Answer» If the earth’s axis is not tilted, the sun’s position will have been over the equator always. If so, both the hemispheres would receive equal amount of sunlight. There wouldn’t have been change of seasons on earth. Since the tilt is maintained throughout the revolution, the position of the sun in relation to the earth varies. The sun shifts apparently between Tropic of Cancer and Tropic of Capricorn and this results in seasons. |
