if I´m not totally wrong, you can describe the the difference between the area the sun in shining on at the northern hemisphere at a given time and the area it´s shining on in winter with help of a sine function. So
A(t) - A(winter) = sin(wt), where w is the angular speed.
Naturally, the area has to be measured at the same time of the day, e.g. at noon.
The southern hemisphere does just the oposite, so it´s the formula for the north summer and the southern winter.
When the earth reaches the Summer Solstice in June, does it immediately start tilting back the other way or does it stay there for a time first before tilting back toward the opposite way?
@3GBlog What do you mean? The earth could be tilted either way since it's in a 3D environment and it would depend on what side of the sun you are looking at the earth. Unless I'm misunderstanding you.
hay this was cool any body from my school see this comment

I just saw I´ve forgotten something very improtant: My sine and cosine functions start in spring, more precise at the prime of the year.
Then the results are as described.

So it actually the process is slowing down until the change of the area per time, described by a cosine, is zero in the middle of the summer.
So it really does slow down and is standing still for "one moment" in the middle of the summer.
I hope I´ve answered your question.
Please correct me at once if I´m making any mistakes. there´s already enough nonsens on youtube.
I´m sorry the posts are in reverse order, please read the post below first.

Nice!
It is hard to find such a correct explanation of such an easy fact on youtube.
Amazing how much nonsens is circulating - not around the sun, but around the internet - so thanks for this simple, perfectly correct explanation

I have a question for anybody.
When the earth reaches the Summer Solstice in June, does it immediately start tilting back the other way or does it stay there for a time first before tilting back toward the opposite way?

@wetweasel56 It turns back immediately.

You have the earths tilt/axis directed in the wrong direction... other then that though great video.
