Question

Vanessa is studying seasons on Earth. She drew a diagram of Earth to show how it is tilted on its axis. Vanessa wants to include the label of Earth’s tilt on her diagram. What angle should she add?

Answer 1

Answer:

23.5º

Explanation:

The Earth has a tilt of 23.5 degrees on its axis. This tilt causes the seasons because certain parts of the Earth are naturally tilted towards the Sun more depending on the Earth's location in its revolution around the Sun. The Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn are located at 23.5º North and South of the equator respectively, and this number comes from the tilt.

Have a wonderful day! :D
