Yes
No. That would be an Equinox. The solstice is when the earth is tilted at maximum angle, (23 1/2 degrees) from the plane of the orbit around the sun. Either north or south pole is closer. The exact difference of night and day will vary depending on where you are on earth.
The two days of the year when there is exactly 12 hours of night and 12 hours of day are the equinoxes. They occur around the 20th of March and the 23rd of September each year.
The day becomes longer than the night during the spring equinox, which usually occurs around March 20th or 21st in the northern hemisphere. This is when the sun crosses the celestial equator and day and night are approximately equal in length. After the spring equinox, days start becoming longer than nights as we move towards summer.
There is 1 day for each equinox: the vernal equinox in spring and the winter equinox in winter.
Days and nights are equal at the equator, an imaginary line that divides the Earth into the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. This phenomenon occurs during the equinoxes, which happen twice a year, around March 20-21 and September 22-23.
The equinox is when, twice each year, day and night are of equal length (about 22 September and 20 March).
Flowers blooming, warmer weather and is equinox- equal days and nights.
Flowers blooming, warmer weather and is equinox- equal days and nights.
The word is "equinoctial" = equal day and night. It occurs twice a year, on the first day of Spring, and the first day of Autumn.
The vernal equinox.
On the vernal and autumnal equinox. Those dates are usually March 20 and Sep 22 or 23.
Equinox occurs at the end of march and september. Days and nights are equal at that time.
The equinoxes are the days when the days and nights are equal. I.e. day=12 hours long, night=12 hours long. The vernal equinox is in spring and the autumnal equinox is obviously in autumn. They are sometimes said to be the start of summer and winter respectively.
12 hour days and 12 hour nights, thus equal day and night (equinox). Happens twice a year, around March 21 and September 23, when winter and summer are considered "over".
Ther sun spends more time in the northern hemisphere, thus longer days and shorter nights. This is reversed when the sun spends more time in the southern hemisphere. At the equinox days, the sun spends time at the equator and the days and nights are equal.
the equinox
The longest day, 21st June is the Summer Solstice. The shortest day , 21st December is the Winter Solstice. The days of equal day and nights , 21st March, and 22nd September are the Vernal Equinox and the Autumnal Equinox , respectively. This data applies in the Northern Hemisphere only. In the Southern Hemisphere the data is reversed. The longest day, 21st December is the Summer Solstice. The shortest day , 21st June is the Winter Solstice. The days of equal day and nights , 21st March, and 22nd September are the Autumnal Equinox and the Vernal Equinox , respectively. NB the word 'vernal' is the adjective for 'Spring'.
