The shortest day of the year in the northern hemisphere is generally December 21, although this can vary by a day either way depending on the cycle of leap years. So starting December 22, the days begin to get a bit longer each day until the summer solstice on June 21.

Will the earth always spin in this speed?
The Earth is gradually slowing down - and will continue to do so throughout time. The length of a 'day' will progressively get longer.
Every 7 days the length of daylight changes by several minutes?
The length of daylight, the amount it changes from day to day, and whether it gets longer or shorter every day, depend on the time of year and your location on the Earth. They're different in every season and at every latitude, so there's no general description that's true for all places and times.
What are the hours of daylight on mars?
A day on Mars is a bit longer than on Earth - 24 hours, 39 minutes, 35 seconds. So, just as the length of daylight on Earth depends on (a) the seasons, and (b) the latitude of the location in question, so a random place on Mars would have a varied range of possible length of daylight. If you know what part of the planet you need to know about then you can probably compare it easily with the earth - allowing for the angle the planet's rotation makes with the Sun.
Are daylight hours are longer for the hemisphere tilted away or towards the sun?
it is toward the sun
Atmospheric refraction makes the daylight hours a bit what?
A bit longer and therefore makes your day more interesting.

When during the year are the days longer?
The days are all the same time, 24 hours or 24x3600 seconds by the clock, but days that are measured by the Sun crossing the meridian are variable. From Nov 6 to Feb 10 and May 15 to July 24 the solar day is getting progressively longer each year, and that is due to a factor called the equation of time. Comment: I think this question may be simply about the length of daylight in a day. In that case, the brief answer is that there are most daylight hours in the summer, nearly everywhere on Earth.
Why is daylight on Venus longer then daylight on Earth?
Because it takes a longer time to rotate than earth does

Are longer days a result of the greenhouse effect?
No, the greenhouse effect keeps the earth warm, but it has no effect on the length of days. Days are longer in summer because your hemisphere is tilted towards the sun and so gets more hours of daylight.
How does the length of daytime and night time affects the seasons?
The length of daylight or nighttime hours does not affect the seasons, but the seasons affect the length of daytime and nighttime hours. During the summer, the earth is tilted more toward the sun, resulting in longer daytime hours. During the winter months, the earth is tilted away from the sun, resulting in shorter days and longer nights.
