What else can I help you with?
Is the sun high or low is summer?
In summer, the sun is typically high in the sky, resulting in longer days and more direct sunlight. This is because of the tilt of the Earth's axis during this season, which causes the sun to be at a more overhead angle in many regions.
Why the sun at noon look small?
When the sun (or moon) is high in the sky there are no objects of known size to compare the sun (or moon) to. But whan the sun is low in the sky you can see far off objects near the horizon that you know ar big and you imagine that the sun is even bigger (it is!) The apparent change in size is an optical illusion.
When does the sun look low in the sky?
The sun looks low in the sky during sunrise and sunset. This is because the sunlight has to pass through more of the Earth's atmosphere, causing it to appear redder and softer compared to when the sun is higher in the sky.
Why is the sun high in the sky at noon?
The sun is at its highest point in the sky at noon because that is when it is directly overhead an observer at the equator. This position is a result of the sun's path across the sky due to the Earth's rotation.
Where is the sun in the sky to make a short shadow?
As high a possible, at mid day. It's even shorter as you get closer to the tropics, where at the right time, the sun can be directly overhead.
During which season does the sun appear highest in the sky and during which season does the sun sppear low in the sky?
Late spring, summer and early fall the sun appears high in the sky, late fall, winter and early spring, it appears to be low in the sky. this is caused by earth's tilting when orbiting around the sun and rotating on it's axis.
Is the sun higher in hot countries?
Yes, the sun is always high in the sky in the tropics. At the equator the sun is always higher at noon than it ever gets in Britain.

Where is the sun in the winter?
Low in the sky
Do places on the equator get seasons just like Britain?
No. Near the equator the sun is always very high in the sky so freezing temperatures can not occur.
From Britain which direction can you see the sun when it is highest in the sky?
it depends the season, if it is winter then the sun would appear to be further to the south and if it is summer then it would appear maybe dirrectly over head or further to the north

When the sun is low in the sky a sun dog usually appears yellow or orange in color why?
When the sun is low in the sky, the sunlight has a greater amount of atmosphere to travel through than when the sun is high in the sky. Atmosphere has some degree of filtering effect on sunlight because longer wavelengths (the reddish ones) are more likely to bounce off of air molecules than the shorter (bluish) ones are. This phenomenon is formally known as Rayleigh scattering. Look it up on google for more information.
Why can't there be wind without the sun?
The sun heats the air which causes high and low pressure systems which results in wind. high to low.
