Yes, equinoxes occur simultaneously in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. During an equinox, the sun is positioned directly above the equator, resulting in nearly equal day and night lengths across the globe. This phenomenon happens twice a year, around March 20 (vernal equinox) and September 23 (autumnal equinox). Thus, both hemispheres experience the equinox at the same moment.
When the northern and southern hemispheres receive the same amount of sunlight, it typically occurs during the equinoxes, which happen in March and September. During these times, the sun is directly above the equator, resulting in nearly equal day and night lengths for both hemispheres. This balance affects seasonal changes, as both hemispheres experience the transition to spring or autumn simultaneously. Consequently, temperatures and daylight hours are more uniform across the globe.
There's no "why". Both hemispheres get the same.
Two places in different hemispheres can have the same time if they are both in the same time zone. Time zones are defined by a range of longitudes, so places within that range will have the same time despite being in different hemispheres.
During the equinoxes, when the Sun is at its highest, it will be at a distance from the zenith which is the same as your geographical latitude, but in the opposite direction. For example, if you live 50 degrees north of the equator, the Sun will be 50 degrees south of the zenith at noon.
The 12-hour light cycle typically occurs during the fall and spring equinoxes when the day and night are roughly equal in length. This usually happens around late September and late March in the Northern Hemisphere.
That would be at the spring and autumn equinoxes.
Yes, an equinox occurs when the plane of Earth's equator passes through the center of the Sun, resulting in nearly equal periods of daylight and darkness. This event happens at the same time globally, so the equinox occurs on the same day and time in both hemispheres.
Earth's hemispheres receive approximately the same amount of energy from the sun during the equinoxes, which occur around March 20th and September 22nd each year. At these times, the tilt of the Earth's axis causes the sun's rays to strike the Earth more directly at the equator, resulting in equal daylight and darkness across the globe.

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).

Israel and Armenia are located in the northern and eastern hemispheres. (They are both in the same quadrant.
Australia and Antarctica are continents that are in both the Eastern and Southern Hemispheres simultaneously.
Yes, when the moon is full, it is full everywhere that day. Only one side of the earth is turned toward the moon at any given time, meaning that only one side can see the moon until the earth turns.
Northern and southern hemispheres share the Earth's rotation, with the North Pole and South Pole acting as opposite ends. Additionally, they both experience solstices and equinoxes at the same time but with opposite seasons, and they each have their own unique climate zones and weather patterns.
There's no "why". Both hemispheres get the same.
