What is the relation between duration of day and season?

The duration of daylight changes with the seasons due to the tilt of the Earth's axis. In the summer, when the North Pole is tilted towards the sun, days are longer. In the winter, when the North Pole is tilted away from the sun, days are shorter. This results in longer days in summer and shorter days in winter.


Which season has the longest days?

Summer typically has the longest days because it is the season when the North Pole is tilted closest to the sun, resulting in longer hours of daylight.


Where is it dark half the year?

The regions near the North and South Poles experience darkness for half the year due to the phenomenon known as polar night. During winter, the Earth's axial tilt causes these areas to be tilted away from the sun, leading to continuous darkness for several months.


Point that earth axis passes through?

The Earth's axis passes through the North and South Poles. This axis is an imaginary line that runs through the center of the Earth from the North Pole to the South Pole. It is tilted at an angle of approximately 23.5 degrees relative to the plane of its orbit around the Sun, which is what causes the seasons.

Seasonally colder weather results from being tilted away from the sun. There is also another kind of cold weather that results from being close to the north pole or the south pole.


What happens during midwinter when the North Pole is tilted away from the Sun?

When it is winter in the northern hemisphere and summer in the southern hemisphere. The North Pole is tilted away from the Sun in December. (That means that the Northern Hemisphere is also tilted away from the Sun in December.)
