A shortest distance covered between two point is called a straight line and  a curve is represented as curve line.

Explanation:

Lines can be short as well as long. A line can be straight as well as curve. A line can be thick as well as thin.  

A straight line is defined as that line which do not have any curves. A straight is one that can be drawn by joining two points or more than two points.

A curve line is that line that is not straight in nature. When there is slight curve in the line it is denoted as the curve line. Example of a curve line is a circle.

In the northern hemisphere, the sun is lowest in the sky with less radiation in the
schepotkina [342]

The Sun is lowest in the sky with less radiation in the Northern Hemisphere during the winter solstice.

Explanation:

The Earth is not static, but instead it is involved in several different motions. One of those motions is the Earth's tilt. Basically, the Earth is tilted with one of its hemispheres (northern or southern) toward the Sun in half of the year, and then in the other half of the year it is tilted with the other hemisphere toward the Sun.

When one of the hemispheres, lets say the Northern Hemisphere, is tilted away from the sky, and that reaches the maximum, it receives the least solar radiation, and the Sun is the lowest on the sky. That occurs on 21 or 22 December, and it is known as the winter solstice. This date represents the start of the winter for the Northern Hemisphere, thus its coldest period of the year.

The four stages on Earth caused by the tilting are:

  • spring equinox
  • summer solstice
  • autumn equinox
  • winter solstice
