Equinox
june 21
The December day with the longest sunlight usually occurs around December 21st, which is known as the winter solstice. This is when the Northern Hemisphere is tilted farthest from the sun, resulting in the shortest day and longest night of the year.
False. During the summer solstice, a location will have its longest day and most direct sunlight. This occurs when the Earth's axial tilt is angled towards the Sun, resulting in the longest period of daylight of the year.
About 17 hours.
The first day of summer (on or about June 21 in the Northern Hermisphere) is the longest day of the year, meaning the most hours of sunlight. From there, each day is a little bit shorter until you come to the shortest day, the first day of winter (on or about December 21). Then they start getting longer again. The first day of summer is called the Summer Solstice, and the first day of winter is called the Winter Solstice.
The plant that experiences the longest day is the bat plant (Tacca chantrieri), found in tropical regions. This plant thrives in areas where daytime lasts the longest, relying on the extended sunlight for photosynthesis and growth.
i believe it was just called that because it lasted all day.
Southern. Australia, probably.
Because - it's the longest day of the year.
Because - the Earth is closest to the Sun - and it's also the longest day.
The longest day in the year is the summer solstice. It occurs between June 20th and June 22th.
