Why would you expect the number of daylight hours at the equator to be about the same throughout the year?
No matter what direction the earth's rotational axis is pointing with respect to the sun, the sun is always shining on half of the equator.
What is the length of daylight associated with the equinox at the equator and the poles?
The length of daylight is 12 hours at both the equator and the poles.
Are the number of daylight hours each day greatest by the North Pole or the equator?
There is a very minimal amount of daylight in the North Pole. By the equator, there is much more sunlight and a much more warmer climate.
How many hours of daylight does the summer solstice consist of?
That would depend on where in the world you are. If you were at the North Pole there would be 24 hours of daylight, while at the South Pole there would be no daylight. At points in between the two poles the amount of daylight would be different. At the equator the amount of daylight hours would be about 12 hours.
Does the equator always have the most hours of daylight?
No, along the equator, every day of the year has 12.1 hours of daylight. That is more than in the hemisphere where it's fall or winter but less than in the hemisphere where it's spring or summer.

When the sun is directallyoverthis the number of daylight hours equals the number of nittimehours all over the world?
The Equator
In the Northern Hemisphere on the June solstice the number of daylight hours?
Increases from 12 hours at the equator to 24 hours at the Artic Circle.
What is the length of daylight associated with the equinox at the equator and the poles?
The length of daylight is 12 hours at both the equator and the poles.
Does the equator have anything to do with hours of daylight?
Your distance from the equator determines how many hours of sunlight you have on the solstices.
What happens to the length of day (the number of hours of daylight) as you move south of the Equator?
day becomes longer
Are the number of daylight hours each day greatest by the North Pole or the equator?
There is a very minimal amount of daylight in the North Pole. By the equator, there is much more sunlight and a much more warmer climate.
What occurs when the sun is directly above the equator and the number of daylight and nighttime hours are nearly equal?
It is called an equinox.
Which location has the least variation in the length of daylight hours?
All places that are on the Equator have the least variation in the length of daylight hours.
How many hours of daylight does the equator get at 180 degrees west a day?
Every point along the equator gets a little more than 12 hours of daylight every day.
How long are the days in each hemisphere?
That hemisphere is tilted towards the sun to its greatest amount. It is the summer solstice in that hemisphere. The sun reaches its highest point and you have the most amount of daylight hours. The further from the equator you are, the more hours of daylight there is.That hemisphere is tilted towards the sun to its greatest amount. It is the summer solstice in that hemisphere.
