Question
this diagram shows four different positions of earth in its orbit around the sun. between which two points does the northern hemisphere experience winter? 3 and 4 2 and 3 4 and 1 1 and 2
The Northern Hemisphere experiences winter when it is tilted away from the Sun. In the Earth - Sun orbit diagram, the winter season in the Northern Hemisphere occurs between the winter solstice and the vernal equinox. Without specific markers on the diagram for solstices and equinoxes, but generally, if we assume a standard orbit diagram layout, winter in the Northern Hemisphere is between the position where the North Pole is most tilted away from the Sun and the position where the tilt is neutral (equinox). Typically, the winter solstice is followed by the vernal equinox. If we assume the diagram is in a standard counter - clockwise orbit, winter in the Northern Hemisphere occurs between 4 and 1.
