How does the length of daylight time at the earth's poles change as the earth orbits the sun?
Exactly at the poles, the cycle is very simple and regular. At the north pole, the sun rises on March 21 and sets on September 21. At the south pole, the sun rises on September 21 and sets on March 21. And that's the whole story.
What constellation does the sun appear in on March 21?
Pisces
In which country sun never set?
There is no place on the surface of the earth where the sun never sets. As seen from the North Pole, the sun is above the horizon continuously from March 21 until September 21. As seen from the South Pole, the sun is above the horizon continuously from September 21 until March 21.
What months does the sun lies south of the equator?
From September 21 until March 21.
On what two dates if the sun directly above the equator?
March 21 and September 21.
When is the South Pole rotated away from the Sun is it on June 21?
The South Pole begins its rotation away from the sun on March 21, and on June 21, it changes course and begins its rotation toward the sun.
North Pole tilted toward the sun at which time?
From March 21 until September 21, maximum on June 21.
What day will the Sun rise exactly in the east and set exactly in the west?
The equinoxes (approximately 21 March & 21 Sept).
The sun is directly over the equator on October 16 or 17?
No. The sun is directly over the equator once near March 21 and again near September 21.
What was the first day of spring in 1987?
March 20 or March 21, depending on where you live The time when the sun crossed directly over the equator was 03:52 UTC on March 21.
How does altitude of the solar noon sun change from December 21 to June 21?
the tilt goes towards the sun, the seasons chang from winter to summer
Does the tilt of the earths axis causes the change of temperature?
Does the tilt of the earths axis CAUSE the change of temperature? Not directly, but there are several factors that link together, so that the Earth's axial tilt is related to the change in temperature as a "trailing indicator".The Earth rotates constantly on its axis like a gyroscope does. Compared to the plane of the Earth's orbit around the Sun, the Earth's axis is tilted at an angle of about 23.5 degrees. As the Earth proceeds around its orbital path, the sunlight we receive is more directly vertical to the ground when the pole is tilted toward the Sun; that is to say, during the spring and summer. That's March 21 through September 21 in the northern hemisphere, and September 21 through March 21 in the southern hemisphere.Because the Sun beats down more directly, this causes the Earth to begin heating up a little more. But notice that the real hot weather doesn't occur for about 3 months after the Spring Equinox, and a month or so after the Summer Solstice - when the Sun is already heading into fall.
