Does the location of the sunset point correlate with how high the sun is in the sky at noon?
Yes, to an extent. In the northern hemisphere summer, the Sun rises somewhat north of east, and the Sun will be higher in the sky at noon. (In the southern hemisphere summers, the Sun rises SOUTH of east and is higher at noon.)In the winter, the sun rises south of east (north of east for the southern hemisphere) and is lower in the sky at noon.
During which season does the sun appear highest in the sky winter at noon or spring at noon?
The answer is that annually, on the day of the summer solstice the sun will be highest in the sky at noon. But the sun will be lowest in the sky at noon, on the day of the winter solstice. So on the day of an 'equinox' the sun will be in an intermediate position at noon because an equinox represents the time of year when day and night are roughly equal. Because the days are longer in summer, then the sun will high in the sky at noon and if you plant a stick in the ground it will project a short shadow. In winter when the days are short, the sun is lower in the sky at noon and will project a long shadow. At an equinox therefore, the noon shadow will be half way in between because day and night are roughly equal.
