December 21-22 and the longest is June 21-22

the longest
The longest day and shortest night occur during the summer solstice, which typically falls on June 21st in the Northern Hemisphere. On this day, the North Pole is tilted closest to the Sun, resulting in the maximum amount of daylight. Conversely, in the Southern Hemisphere, this date marks the shortest day and longest night of the year.
Because it is the shortest day of the year.
No, the shortest.
Yes.
An equinox is not the shortest day. It has the same amount of daylight and darkness. The solstices have the longest and shortest days. The winter solstice is the shortest day of the year in terms of the amount of daylight.
For the Northern Hemisphere that would be on or about December 21st
Longest - Winter Solstice - December 21 Shortest - Summer Solstice - June 21
a soltice is a day where the day is either the shortest or longest in the year, there are two soltices, the summer solstice (june 21st) the longest day of the year and the winter solstice (december 21st) the shortest day of the year
Alaska has the longest day of the year with almost 24 hours of daylight during the summer solstice. Hawaii has the shortest day of the year with around 10 hours of daylight during the winter solstice.
