Describe the tilt of the Earth compared to the Sun, during summer vs. winter in New York City.
andrew11 [14]

It is all about the tilt of the Earth’s axis. Many people believe that the temperature changes because the Earth is closer to the sun in summer and farther from the sun in winter. In fact, the Earth is farthest from the sun in July and is closest to the sun in January!

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. Thus, we have winter!

What are two examples of a subduction zones and why are they occurring in each location?
patriot [66]

Answer:

<u>South America, Central America, and the Cascade Volcanoes are an example of this type of subduction. Japan, Indonesia, and the Aleutian Islands are examples of this type of subduction</u>

Explanation:

  • Subduction is a process of destruction of the old lithospheric plate at the construction of a new plate through the divergent boundary of the mid-oceanic ridge.
  • For subduction to take place the plate or slab need to pass through a trench or subduction zone and can occur through the collision of oceanic crust and the collision of continental and oceanic crust which one is lighter goes under and hence volcanic and mountains are formed as a surface feature.
  • Evert plate is moving at a well-defined rate of subduction either in east or west direction as the seafloor continues to spread.
