How does a flag poles shadow change over a year?

The shadow of a flag pole changes over a year due to the tilt of the Earth's axis. In the summer, the shadow is shorter at noon as the sun is higher in the sky. In the winter, the shadow is longer at noon as the sun is lower in the sky. Additionally, the length of the shadow will also vary depending on the latitude of the location.


How does a flagpole shadow change over a year?

answ 2. Due to the travel of the earth around its (non-circular) path on the ecliptic; and the tilt of the Earth's axis, the path of the (say) tip of the flagpole will not repeat exactly until a year has passed. The path of the shadow of this 'flagpole gnomon' will describe a passage known as the Equation of Time.This you can look up in an encyclopedia or a search engine.

You normally divide by the previous year. The general rule for calculating a relative (or percentage) change is to look at the change compared to the base, or earlier, year.
