Expert Solution & Answer

To determine

The season and month in Sydney, Australia if it is winter and January in Chicago.

Answer to Problem 19TE

The season is summer and month is January in Sydney, Australia if it is winter and January in Chicago.

Explanation of Solution

If it is winter season in Chicago and month is January, then in Sydney, Australia, it will be summer. The season will be summer in Sydney due to the location of the Sydney with respect to the Chicago.

Chicago is located in the Northern hemisphere, but Sydney is located in the Southern hemisphere. The Northern and Southern have a different season, so if it is winter season in the Chicago, then it will be summer season in Sydney, but if it is summer in the Chicago, then winter season will occur in the Sydney, Australia.

Conclusion:

Therefore, the season is summer and month is January in Sydney, Australia if it is winter and January in Chicago.
