So people who live around the equator, will always receive around about 12 hours daylight and 12 hours darkness all year around. Whilst people living between the equator and north pole will have longer days with sunlight whilst the north pole is facing the sun (summer) and shorter days with daylight whilst the south pole is facing the sun (winter). Yet for people living between equator and south pole it is reversed, that's why when its summer in the UK or USA its winter down in Australia and vice versa. i hope this has answered your question! :)

Why do the number of hours of sunlight change as the earth revolves around the sun?
The number of hours of sunlight changes as the earth revolves around the sun because the earth revolves around the sun tilted. Depending on the position of the earth in relation to the sun will determine the number of hours of sunlight emitted towards earth.
How will the angle of the sun effect the hours of sun light?
it is not the angle of the sun, but the Tilt of the earth as it orbits around the sun that impacts the number of hours of sunlight we experience in a day. During the summer the Northern Hemisphere is tilted towards the Sun and receives more hours of sunlight. Conversely the Southern Hemisphere is tilted away and it receives less hours of sunlight an they experience Winter. That is why the Artic regions experience periods when the sun may be visible all day long in the summer months and they have periods where no sun is visible during the winter months. The Tilt of the earth is approximately 22 degrees relative to our rotation.
What country has only 12 hours of daylight?
All locations on Earth will experience 12 hours of daylight on the equinoxes. Area where it is spring or summer will experience more than 12 hours of daylight while places where it is fall or winter will experience fewer. The Equator always experiences 12 hours of daylight.
How many hours of sunlight does the arctic receive in the summer months?
During the summer months, the Earth's northern hemisphere is tilted towards the sun. As a result, areas north of the Arctic Circle (i.e. north of 66.5622° latitude) will experience what is called a midnight sun during the Summer Solstice - a phenomena where the sun does not fully set (i.e. there is 24 hours of sunlight on this day).The exact number of hours of sunlight that occur on other days during the summer will depend on where you the specific location within the Arctic circle and which day you are referring to. Between the Spring (or Vernal) Equinox and the Fall Equinox - days where all locations on Earth experience an equal number of sunlight and nighttime hours - the number of hours of sunlight will vary between 12 (at the equinox) and 24 (at the Summer solstice).
What region on earth experience 24 hours of sunlight during the solstice in December?

How many hours of sunlight do latitudes north of the Antarctic Circle receive?
North of the Antarctic Circle, geographies experience a mix of hours of sunlight and hours of no sunlight. At the Antarctic Circle, there is at least one 24-hour period of no sunrise/ sunset per year. At the Equator, these periods are about 12 hours each.
Why do you get more hours of daylight per a day in the summer?
Because you turn the clock back a whole hour. Also, the Earth is tilted on its axis, so countries in the northern hemisphere will experience less sunlight during the winter months and more sunlight during the summer.
