Between June 21 and December 21, it moves from 23.5 north to 23.5 south ... 47 degrees of latitude. Then during the other 6 months, it covers the 47 degrees to return back north. But the rate at which it covers this range is not constant. The speed is "sinusoidal" ... slowest at the ends, and fastest in the middle.
About 23.5 degrees
For someone at the equator, during an equinox the Sun will get to the zenith.For someone at the equator, during an equinox the Sun will get to the zenith.For someone at the equator, during an equinox the Sun will get to the zenith.For someone at the equator, during an equinox the Sun will get to the zenith.
through the fall and the spring equinox alot of things happen during the fall and spring equinox
The equinox is the only day of 12 hours of night and day. It Occurs every spring and fall.
At the equinox, the Sun will be directly above the equator, 0 degrees latitude.
At the Spring and Autumn Equinox, the sun is directly over the equator which is at 0 degrees latitude.
During the equinoxes, when the Sun is at its highest, it will be at a distance from the zenith which is the same as your geographical latitude, but in the opposite direction. For example, if you live 50 degrees north of the equator, the Sun will be 50 degrees south of the zenith at noon.
It is directly above the equator.
The are most direct on the Equator.
During Spring (Vernal Equinox) - March 20th or 21st = Equator During Fall (Fall Equinox) - September 22nd and 23rd = Equator (Yeah, the sun's rays are most direct on the equator during Spring and Fall) especially the days I mentioned above. The Equinox's
A+ at the equator-inator DOOF
no
During the solstice (our summer for north, our winter for south).
The tangent ray refers to either the northernmost or southernmost hemisphere where the vertical rays refers to direct sun. During the June 21 solstice, the latitude rays in the northern hemisphere would be 66.5 degrees N (Arctic Circle)
