    Summer solstice is the longest day
    Spring equinox in the Northern hemisphere is on 21 March
    Rotation causes deflection of winds
    Revolution causes seasons

    Explanation: 

    1. In olden days, people used to think that the Earth is like a flat disc. But Magellan proved that the Earth is round.
    2. During the summer solstice, the Northern Hemisphere witnesses its longest day of the year.
    3. ​On 21 March every year in the Northern Hemisphere, the spring equinox happens when the length of the day and that of the night are equal.
    4. The rotation of the Earth is responsible for the deflection of winds.
    5. The revolution of the Earth around the Sun causes the change in seasons (summer, winter, spring etc.) on the Earth.
