Hypothesis: I think that when the light of the Sun is shown on the earth, it will spread out, so that while the North Pole is not getting light, the South Pole will.
When it comes to winter in the northern hemisphere, which areas get the most concentrated light? When it is winter in the norther hemisphere, it is summer in the southern, simply concluding in the fact that that hemisphere, the southern, receives the most concentrated light. The areas close to the equator receive the most light and are the warmest, whereas the south pole will receive the least amount of light and are the coldest. While on the other side, in the northern hemisphere there is much less light. There will be some close to the equator and barely anything in the north pole.
Compare your observations between the way the light hit the equator during winter and summer between the north pole and the equator In summer, the northern hemisphere is tilted slight towards the sun, therefore there is more light in the north pole and everywhere from the equator up. In the winter, the northern hemisphere is tilted slightly away from the sun, therefor there is less light. There is hardly any light in the north pole and not very much from the equator up.
If the squares become larger from the light on the grid, what can you infer about the heat of the light shining on it? If the square becomes bigger and larger, I can easily conclude that the heat that is bearing down on it is warmer, because of the fact that the light that is shining on it, it will get warmer and the grids on it will grow bigger.
According to your observations, which areas on earth are warmest? which areas are coolest? After my conclusions and basically my personal thoughts, I would probably say that the areas nearest the equator are the warmest, because no matter what season it is, most of the concentrated light will always shine in that spot.The coldest areas on this planet are probably the north and south poles. Because even in summer, hardly any light reaches there to warm it up.
What time of year would the toothpicks shadow be longest? When would it be shortest? I would guess that the time of year when the shadow is longest would be summer because that's when the most light would be shining on it, and because light can't break through barriers, it causes a shadow. Which means that the time of year when the shadow would be shortest would be winter because only a little light is shining on it.
How are the amounts of heat and light received in a square related to the angle of the suns rays? The more concentrated the sun makes its light, the brighter and straighter the squares will appear to be on Earth. The angle of the light will be causing the squares to appear stretched or faint when it comes at it from a slight tilt.
Use information form your observations to write an explanation of why the seasons change
Because of the Earth's orbit, the southern and northern hemisphere will change and alternately tilt to or from the sun. The light and heat that is reflected from the sun is what that, just basically causes the seasons. During the period that the Norther Hemisphere is titled to the sun, it's going to be either the Summer season, or the Spring season, whereas when it's tilted away it's either going to be the Fall season or the Winter season.
