During an equinox the sun is directly over what part of earth?
That's the "Celestial Equator".
Is the north end of Earths axis tilted away from the sun during an equinox?
No. The Earth's axis is directly overhead at the Equator, therefore the axis isn't north or south on the Equinox.
How do you store solar energy?
The solar planar cells on the earth receive the solar energy from sun and this energy can be stored in batteries
Why does Earth receive more energy from the Sun than from any other star?
Because the Sun is the closest to the Earth.
When is the sun completally over Earth's axis?
It is completely over the axis when we have an equinox. Like the Fall and Spring equinox's.
Is sunlight hitting both poles during an equinox?
Yes, during an equinox, both poles receive approximately equal amounts of sunlight due to the Earth's axial tilt and the position in its orbit.
What time of the year do both of earths hemisphere receive the same amount of energy from the sun?
The sun emits different amounts of energy all the time, however the hemispheres receive equal amounts of SUNLIGHT on the Equinoxes (approx. September 21 and March 21).
During an equinox's the Sun is directly above Earth's?
... equator.
What happens to the earth during September 21?
Autumnal Equinox
Most of earth's ecosystems' main source of energy is the?
The energy we receive from the Sun.The energy we receive from the Sun.The energy we receive from the Sun.The energy we receive from the Sun.
What part of the earth is directly over the sun during equinox?
Equator.
What side of the earth is closest to the sun during an equinox?
The side of the earth that is closest to the sun is always the sunlit side; this remains true at the equinoxes. An equinox happens at a single moment, and the part of the earth receiving sunlight at these moments will be different from equinox to equinox, because the equinoxes are not in synch with whole days.
Exactly one-half of the surface area of the Earth is in sunlight during?
During an equinox, or an equilux.
Does the earth's poles have sunsets during an equinox?
Everyone has a sunset on the equinox because all latitudes have 12 hours of day and night.
How is earth tilted during an equinox?
The equinox is the only day of 12 hours of night and day. It Occurs every spring and fall.
Where does earth receive energy from?
From sun
Does earth receive its energy from the sun?
Yes. Most of Earth's energy comes from the Sun.
