Ah, the fall equinox is such a special time when the sun shines directly on the equator. Its declination is zero because it is right over that imaginary line. Nature is always keeping us in balance and harmony. Just visualize that warm sunlight hugging the Earth with love and peace. Stunning! Keep painting those happy little equations, my friend.
What else can I help you with?
When does the sun have adeclination of zero degrees today but will have a negative declination tomorrow?
The Sun has zero declination at the two equinoxes on March 21 and September 21 (approximately). At the autumn equinox in September it crosses the plane of the Earth's orbit from north to south, so its declination goes from positive to negative.
What solstice is the point on the ecliptic when the suns declination is mostly southerly?
From the perspective of the Northern Hemisphere, this solstice will be called the "winter" solstice.
What are the two days of the year when neither hemisphere is tilted toward the sun is known as?
The two days are known as the Equinox. The spring Equinox (typically June 21) is known as the "Vernal Equinox". The fall Equinox (Typically September 21) is known as the "Autumnal Equinox".
What is it called when the sun is directly above the equator?
This happens twice a year at on of the "equinox" (the spring equinox or the fall equinox) At noon if you are on the equator at thet oment the Sun is at the "Zenith".
When is the sun completally over Earth's axis?
The Sun is over Earth's equator during the equinoxes, which occur around March 20th (spring equinox) and September 22nd (fall equinox) each year. This is when day and night are approximately equal in duration all over the world.
What is the suns declination on the fall equinox?
60° S
When do both hemisphere receive the same amount of the suns energy?
during the fall or spring equinox.
Where are the suns rays most direct during spring and fall?
During Spring (Vernal Equinox) - March 20th or 21st = Equator During Fall (Fall Equinox) - September 22nd and 23rd = Equator (Yeah, the sun's rays are most direct on the equator during Spring and Fall) especially the days I mentioned above. The Equinox's
What is the Sun's declination on the fall equinox?
The fall equinox (and also the spring equinox) is at a time/day/date in the year when, in all parts of the earth, the length of the day is the same as the length of the night. Although technically this is not absolutely and precisely so, the general principle of equal hours of sunlight and darkness on that day holds true for all parts of the globe, regardless of latitude or longitude.

Scientific name for fall?
The answer is autumnal equinox.
What is the Fall equivalent to the Spring Equinox?
Spring equinox occurs around March 20 and Fall equinox occurs around September 22 for the Northern Hemisphere. For the Southern Hemisphere these dates are opposite; the Spring equinox is around September 22 and the Fall equinox occurs around March 20.
The celestial coordinates of the autumnal equinox are?
The celestial coordinates of the autumnal equinox are 0 hours right ascension and 0 degrees declination. This marks the point at which the sun crosses the celestial equator, and day and night are of equal length.
What is the scientific name of the first day of fall?
In North America, the first day of fall is considered to be on September's equinox. Every year, there is another equinox around March 20.
Which of the following are valid names for the equinoxes?
fall equinox partial equinox
What is equinox days?
The spring equinox is March 21, The fall equinox is September 23
Where are the suns rays most direct during the equinox?
A+ at the equator-inator DOOF
At what point sun's declination is minimum?
This only happens on the fall equinox, the dividing line between summer and fall. If you live in the northern hemisphere, this happens on September 21 (plus or minus one day because of the cycle of leap years) and in the southern hemisphere on March 21.
