How long does the northern hemisphere exposed to vertical rays of the sun?

The northern hemisphere is exposed to vertical rays of the sun during the summer solstice, which occurs around June 21 each year. On this day, the sun is directly overhead at the Tropic of Cancer (23.5° N latitude), resulting in the longest day of the year for the northern hemisphere. After the summer solstice, the sun's rays gradually shift southward, decreasing direct sunlight in the northern hemisphere until the winter solstice in December.


Is summer and winter are caused by the earth's swinging back and forth 23.5 degrees from the vertical?

Well, kind of. The earth doesn't actually swing at all- it has an axial tilt of 23.5 degrees, but it's always pointing in the same direction (precession notwithstanding- irrelevant for this question). Picture the earth orbiting around the sun with an arrow pointing out the top. The arrow is tilted 23.5 degrees to the side, of course. Now on one end of the orbit, the arrow will be pointing toward the sun, and on the other it will be pointing away. When the arrow is pointing toward the sun, the northern hemisphere has more direct exposure to sunlight, and that's what makes it summer. This is also why it's winter in the southern hemisphere at the same time. I included a link below to an animation that shows this quite clearly.

What way is vertical?

Vertical is a relative term. It usually refers to a direction pointing in the opposite direction of Gravity. So if you are in outer space, then I guess there is no real "vertical" direction.

What does the maths term vertical mean?

If we were speaking of a stick, if we were going to maintain that stick in the mathematical position of VERTICAL, the stick would be placed and held so that one end of the stick were pointing straight up toward the sky and the distal end of the stick would result in pointing at a 180 degree angle pointing directly at the floor/ground.


How to Anchoring a flagpole in the ground?

To anchor a flagpole in the ground, first, dig a hole that is about one-third the height of the flagpole. Next, place the pole in the center of the hole and ensure it's vertical using a level. Fill the hole with concrete mix, ensuring it's compacted around the pole for stability. Allow the concrete to cure according to the manufacturer’s instructions before attaching the flag.


Is a flag pole a pole arm?

No, a flagpole is not considered a polearm. A flagpole is a vertical structure used to display flags, while a polearm refers to a type of weapon that has a long shaft and a blade or point at the end, designed for combat. The two serve very different purposes and are categorized differently.
