    When the Earth is at its perihelion (closest to the Sun), which season is the Northern Hemisphere experiencing?

    Solutions

    The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. Winter.

    When the Earth is at its perihelion, its closest point to the Sun, in early January, the Northern Hemisphere experiences winter. This is due to the tilt of Earth's axis, which causes the Northern Hemisphere to be tilted away from the Sun during this time, resulting in shorter days and lower solar angles. Consequently, even though the Earth is closest to the Sun, the reduced sunlight and its lower intensity lead to the cooler temperatures of winter.
