At what angle does the sun's rays hit the earth on dec 21 sept 23 June 21 and March 21 in Buffalo NY?

In fact, the Sun's rays strike Buffalo, NY at various angles as the Sun rises on the eastern horizon, crosses to the South, and then sets in the west. The only angle that we're really interested in is the "local apparent noon", or "Sun transit" angle. Buffalo is a large city, and the angle will be different on the north edge or the south edge. Niagara Square, pretty close to the city center, is at latitude 42.88 degrees north. Consulting the Nautical Almanac Online for 2011, I see that the declination of the Sun as it passes Buffalo on March 21, 2011 will be 0 degrees 16 minutes north, or 0.27 degrees. On June 21, 23 degrees 26 minutes north, or 23.38 degrees. On September 21, the Sun will be at declination 0 degrees 39 minutes North, or 0.65, and on December 21, 23 degrees 26 minutes SOUTH, or 23.36. So, on March 21, the "local apparent noon" Sun elevation angle above the southern horizon will be 90 minus Buffalo's latitude of 42.88 degrees PLUS the declination of 0.27 degrees, or 47.39 degrees On June 21, the Sun's maximum elevation will be 90 minus 42.88 PLUS 23.38, or 70.5 degrees. I'll let you calculate the other two, remembering to subtract the declination when it is south.

How many degrees per hour does the earth rotate at 44 degrees N latitude?

At 44 degrees N latitude, the Earth rotates at a rate of approximately 15 degrees per hour. This is because the Earth completes one full rotation every 24 hours, covering 360 degrees in total. By dividing 360 degrees by 24 hours, we get the rate of rotation at 15 degrees per hour.
