At the Equator, the sun rises at about 6am every day of the year.
In the far north of Canada, the sun rises earlier than that in the winter, and later than that in the summer.
So in summer, the sun rises later nearer to the equator. And in winter, the sun rises earlier nearer to the equator.

What is the furthest point south where the sun never gets exactly overhead at noon?
The furthest point south where the sun never gets exactly overhead at noon is the Antarctic Circle, which is about 66.5 degrees south latitude. This means that during the summer solstice in the Southern Hemisphere, the sun will still be lower in the sky at noon for locations south of the Antarctic Circle.
Where is the sun at noon?
At noon, the Sun would cross the meridian, wherever you live.September is close to an equinox; if you live at the Equator, the Sun would be at the zenith. For every degree further north that you live, the Sun would be a degree south of the zenith. For example, if you live at 50 degrees latitude North, the Sun would be 40 degrees above the horizon (towards the South) i.e., 50 degrees from the zenit.
At noon is the sun in the north?
Well, if you are in the southern hemisphere the sun will be going across the northern sky and if you are in the northern it will go across the southern. Depending on where you are you will know if the sun is in the north sky.
The sun rises in the east on your right you face north?
If the sun is rising on your right side, then you are facing south. The east is to your right when you are facing south, which means north will be to your left.
Where will be the sun at noon?
The sun will be directly overhead at noon for locations along the Tropic of Cancer (23.5 degrees north latitude) on the June solstice and locations along the Tropic of Capricorn (23.5 degrees south latitude) on the December solstice. In between those latitudes, the sun will be high in the sky but not directly overhead at noon.
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.
How did they tell time a long time ago?
By the sun. go outside face south and if the sun is on you left its 6am to noon and if the sun is on your right the time is noon to 6pm.
What is the different positions of shadows in morning noon and afternoon?
Morning: The shadow will be the longest and facing the west as the sun rises in the east Noon: The shadow will be the shortest as the sun is directly above the object Afternoon: The shadow will be slightly longer and facing east as the sun is going to set in the west soon.
What is the furthest point south where the sun never gets exactly overhead at noon?
The furthest point south where the sun never gets exactly overhead at noon is the Antarctic Circle, which is about 66.5 degrees south latitude. This means that during the summer solstice in the Southern Hemisphere, the sun will still be lower in the sky at noon for locations south of the Antarctic Circle.
What is the name of the direction to the right of a person facing the rising sun?
The direction to the right of a person facing the rising sun is called the south. This is because when facing east (where the sun rises), the south is positioned to the right side.
Where is the sun at noon?

At noon where is the sun in the sky?
At its highest point in the sky, and due South in the Northern Hemisphere.
More of the lighted ssurface of the noon is facing earth at?
At full moon - that's when the Moon is opposite to the Sun in the sky.
How can you use the position of the sun to figure out the direction you are looking?
Real basic...the sun rises in the east and sets in the west. If you face the morning sun your left hand points north, your right hand points south and your back it to the west. If you are facing the afternoon sun your right hand points north, your left to the south and your back is to the east. The sun rises in the east and sets in the west. Before solar noon if you are heading towards the sun you are heading east and away from is west. If you know your compass points you can figure north and south off of your other positions. The opposite is true after solar noon. If you are heading towards the sun you are then heading west.
What is the angle of the noon day sun at 23.5 degrees in south on March 21?
On March 21, which is the vernal equinox, the sun is positioned directly above the equator. At a latitude of 23.5 degrees south, the noon sun will be at an angle of 90 degrees minus the latitude, resulting in an angle of 66.5 degrees above the horizon. This means the sun will be relatively high in the sky at noon, illuminating the area directly below it.
The sun rises in the east on your right you face north?
If the sun is rising on your right side, then you are facing south. The east is to your right when you are facing south, which means north will be to your left.
At noon is the sun in the north?
Well, if you are in the southern hemisphere the sun will be going across the northern sky and if you are in the northern it will go across the southern. Depending on where you are you will know if the sun is in the north sky.
