Why are summers generally warmer than winters?
andrew-mc [135]
Because the earth's axis is tilted. It is all about the tilt of the Earth's axis. 

During the summer, the sun's rays hit the Earth at a steep angle. The light does not spread out as much, thus increasing the amount of energy hitting any given spot. Also, the long daylight hours allow the Earth plenty of time to reach warm temperatures.

During the winter, the sun's rays hit the Earth at a shallow angle. These rays are more spread out, which minimizes the amount of energy that hits any given spot. Also, the long nights and short days prevent the Earth from warming up. That's why we have winter.

I hope this helped!


Thank you,

Otaku

"Which is characteristic of globular star clusters"?
Andrew [12]

Answer:

Old age and hundreds of thousands of stars, only about 30 ly wide

Explanation:

A globular cluster is a collection of stars which are bound by a very strong force known as gravity (gravity is the force of attraction between two bodies). The gravity then causes globular clusters to have a spherical shape with a high number of stars closer to the center (where the gravity is strongest).

These stars are usually very old and the diameter of the clusters are usually only 30 lightyears wide because of the strong gravity.
