The day that has equal light and dark is known as the equinox. There are two equinoxes each year: the vernal equinox in March and the autumnal equinox in September. On these days, day and night are approximately equal in length due to the position of the Earth relative to the Sun. This occurs when the Sun crosses the celestial equator, moving northward in March and southward in September.

During a solstice do the periods of light and dark are equal?
No, during a solstice the periods of light and dark are not equal. During the summer solstice, the day is longest and the night is shortest, while during the winter solstice, the day is shortest and the night is longest. This is due to the tilt of the Earth's axis.
What is the edge dividing the light and dark called?
The edge dividing light and dark is called the terminator. This is where the illumination transitions from day to night or vice versa on a celestial body such as the moon or a planet.
How do day and night affect our planet?
During the day, sunlight provides both light and heat. At night, it is dark and it cools off.
When was Light After Dark created?
Light After Dark was created in 2008.
Why do luminous object glow in the dark only?
Luminous objects emit light through a process called luminescence, where they convert energy into light. This light emission is what makes them glow in the dark. Non-luminous objects do not have this capability, so they do not glow in the dark.

Does a light bulb use more energy when in the dark?
For most light bulbs, they consume equal amounts of energy regardless of bright or dark environments. This is because a light bulb is simply lit up by a power source, and is unable to control brightness, producing the same amount of light. That is why most people say we should not waste energy by switching on a light bulb in the day.
How do you calculate net primary production?
by using light bottle and dark bottle method 1) Net primary production (NPP)= light -intial 2) Respiration=intial -dark 3)Gross Primary Production(GPP)=light -dark initial -oygen level in the experiment water body initially light -oxygen level in the light bottle after 1 day dark-oxygen level in the dark bottle after 1 day
What is the length of day on Luna?
Forever, because the moon doesn't spin so the light side is always light and the dark side is alaways dark.
How does Earth's tilt and orbit around the sun effect day light?
because when the earth spins on it's axis the sun hits it but as it moves there would be light and dark at different times. When it is dark it is night and when it is light it is day. I hope it helped you
