Read the sentences below, and indicate which accurately describe the effects of Earth's rotation and the angle of the Sun. Select all that apply. View Available Hint(s) Select all that apply. The tilt of Earth and the latitude of a city affect the degree and amount of direct sunlight that the location receives at the winter solstice. From the spring equinox until the fall equinox, the Sun shines continually at the North Pole (for 6 months). However, temperatures during this time never get very warm due to the high angle of the Sun striking Earth at the poles. The circumference of Earth at the equator is 24,900 miles. Based on this, a person at the equator is rotating 1040 miles per hour. (Round to the nearest tens digit.) You see the Sun directly overhead in Anchorage, Alaska, at 60° N on the summer solstice. This indicates that Earth is tilted at a 50° angle.

Answer:

A. The tilt of Earth and the latitude of a city affect the degree and amount of direct sunlight that the location receives at the winter solstice.

B. temperatures during this time never get very warm due to the high angle of the Sun striking Earth at the poles.

Explanation:

Tilting of earth is responsible for the presence of seasons on the planet earth. if there is no tilting occurs, no seasons will be formed. This tilting change the climate of the different areas. Due to tilting of earth, winter season occurs in different regions of the earth because direct sunlight is not coming on that tilted part. The poles are very cold because direct sunlight does not received by the poles while the equator receives direct sunlight so it get very warm.
