Understanding the Variation in Daylight Throughout the Year

The video explains why daylight varies throughout the year, focusing on the Earth's tilted axis. In summer, longer daylight is due to the Earth's tilt towards the sun, while in winter, shorter daylight occurs when the Earth tilts away. The Earth's axis is tilted at 23.5 degrees, causing different parts of the world to experience varying daylight lengths. When the North Pole tilts towards the sun, the Northern Hemisphere enjoys more daylight, and when it tilts away, it experiences less.

What is the reason for the difference in daylight hours between summer and winter?

How does the tilt of the Earth's axis affect the amount of daylight received in different hemispheres?

What is the significance of the Earth's tilt being 23 1/2 degrees?

What would happen if the Earth were not tilted on its axis?

Explain how the position of the North Pole relative to the sun influences daylight in the Northern Hemisphere.
