its called mericon
While the Earth revolves around the Sun, the axis is always pointed in the same direction, so the Sun's light hits different parts of the Earth at different angles. For example, in summer in the Northern Hemisphere, the top of the Earth's axis is pointed towards the Sun, so the light hits the Earth there more directly, causing more heat.
The distance in a straight line from one place on a ripple to the same place on the next ripple is called the wave length.
when the south pole is pointed toward the sun, the northern hemisphere experiences winter, and the south hemisphere experiences summer. when the north pole is pointed toward the sun, the north hemisphere experiences summer, and the south experiences winter.
It would have affected duration of day and night. And weather would have remained same at a particular area whole year. Because when north pole is away from sun summer season is prevailed in that area. if axis of earth become perpendicular then distance of a place from sun would remain same.
So you got the spam in your other messages on face book ? Same name and same place ...
Earth has seasons because its axis is tilted. Earth's axis is always pointed in the same direction, so different parts of Earth get the Sun's direct rays throughout the year.
No, the sun does not give off more heat in the summer. It only seems hotter because the axis of the Earth, that you are on, is now pointed closer to the sun, where as in winter you are actually farther from the sun, since the axis is pointed in the other direction, and therefore you do not experience the same warmth as in summer.

The earth "rotates" on its axis. At the same time it "revolves" about the Sun. Very three-dimensional.
The axis always remains parallel to the previous position as Earth revolves around the sun; the axis always points in the same direction. Since this is true, you cans see that during its revolution, the direct sunlight hits at different points of the Earth. If the axis pointed in random directions all the time, direct sunlight wouldn't hit in the same spot at the same time every year, thus there would be no seasons. This would also mean that if at some point the axis was pointed directly at the sun, the North Pole would be receiving extreme amounts of heat, and the ice would melt. At the same time, the South Pole would be receiving very little direct sunlight, creating severely cold temperatures.
Focus on the point you wanna look at and just concetrate on it and there you go both eyes looking at da same place:)
NO
There is no good reason. x and y are frequently used in algebra to denote unknown variables but that again begs the same question - why not a or b?
It never does because the same face of the moon is always pointed at Earth. This is due to the fact that the moon revolves around Earth at the same speed it rotates on it's axis, so Earth remains in the same relative location in the sky on the moon.
No. And Earth's axis won't point in the same direction forever, either - in a process called "precession", the direction of the axis changes over time.
Both or axis', they are lines, and both are in graphs, but techniquelly they arent the same thing.
No the x axis is the abscissa and the y axis the ordinate.
