That point on the map of the stars is called a solstice.

There are two of them. The sun reaches the northerly one ... the one described in

the question ... on June 21, and the other one, the southerly one, on or about

December 21.

How do you find celestial points?

You measure the angles from east from the first point of Aries (which is the place in the sky where the Sun crosses the celestial equator at the March equinox) and north from the ecliptic (declination).


What is Synchronous Motion?

When a point on the structure passes through the equilibrium position at the same instant and reach the peak position at the same instant


What is absolute rest and absolute motion?

motion : when a body is moving or changing its position with respect to its surroundings is called motion. rest: when a body is not moving or fixed at a place with respect to its surroundings is called rest.


3 types of motion?

The three types of motion are uniform motion, variable motion, and periodic motion. Uniform motion is when the speed and direction stays the same. But in Periodic motion, the motion is repeated. But in contrast to all of them, Variable motion is when eventually the direction or the velocity (speed) change.Alternatively, in physics there are only three types of motion when describing particles eg electrons, molecules, atoms etc:transitional motion that takes an object from one location to another;vibrational motion that takes the object backwards and forwards over the same relatively small distance;rotational motion where an object is spinning.Most movement consists of a mixture of all three but the particles in a solid would have mainly vibrational motion where as gas particles would have them all.


What moon phase is on the northern hemisphere?

No. When you think about it, the highest appearance of the moon in the skyhas to take place during the Winter, in either hemisphere.The moon's orbit is inclined to the ecliptic.So the highest possible appearance is when the moon isabove the ecliptic AND when the ecliptic is high.The moon is above the ecliptic for half of every lunar cycle ... 2 weeks out of every 4.The ecliptic is high at night when it's low during the day ... i.e. in Winter.

Examples problem in motion along straight line?

A problem in motion along a straight line is a problem that takes place in one dimension. An example problem is an object on a straight conveyor belt.


What is meant by rectilinear motion?

A motion along straight line is called rectilinear motion. In general, it need not be one - dimensional; it can take place in a two dimensional plane or in three dimensional space. But, it is always possible that rectilinear motion be treated as one dimensional motion, by suitably orienting axes of the coordinate system.


What is simultaneous motion?

The motion in which translator motion and rotatory motion takes place simultaneously is called simultaneous motion


Where are Saturn and venus compared to altair?

The star Altair stays in one place in the sky, but Venus and Saturn move on (or near) a circle called the ecliptic, like the other planets. But none of the planets goes close to Altair because it is well off the ecliptic.


What is an example of translatory motion?

Any motion where the object moves from place to place, e.g. someone riding a bike.
