1. Equinox (March 21 and September 23): To model the Earth's position on an equinox (March
21 and September 23), rotate the Earth so that the North Pole is on 0°. Use the protractor on
the model to determine the angle of insolation at noon for the labeled latitudes. Record your
data in the Equinox column on the data table below.
2. June 21: To model the Earth's position on June 21, rotate the Earth so that the North Pole is
pointing 23.5° towards the Sun. Use the protractor on the model to determine the angle of
insolation at noon for the labeled latitudes. Record your data in the June 21 column on the
data table below.
3. December 21: To model the Earth's position on December 21, rotate the Earth so that the
North Pole is pointing 23.5° away from the Sun. Use the protractor on the model to determine
the angle of insolation at noon for the labeled latitudes. Record your data in the December 21
column on the data table below.
