Why is 21 of June the shortest day of the year?

Actually, June 21 is typically the longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere, not the shortest. This day marks the summer solstice, when the North Pole is tilted closest to the sun, resulting in the longest period of daylight. Conversely, the shortest day of the year occurs around December 21, during the winter solstice, when the North Pole is tilted farthest from the sun.


What position in earth located on December 21?

On December 21, the Earth is positioned at the December solstice. This is when the Northern Hemisphere experiences the winter solstice, marking the shortest day and longest night of the year, while the Southern Hemisphere experiences the summer solstice, with the longest day and shortest night of the year.


How many hours is the difference between longest day and shortest?

The longest day of the year, known as the summer solstice, can have up to about 16 to 17 hours of daylight, depending on your location. In contrast, the shortest day of the year, the winter solstice, typically has around 7 to 8 hours of daylight. This results in a difference of approximately 8 to 10 hours of daylight between the longest and shortest days. The exact difference can vary based on geographic location.
