how many minutes or seconds are lost each day from June 21 and onwards to Dec. 21?
1min
I think it's about 2 minutes a day in Canada. Anyhow it dpens on where you are on the GLobe! How many minutes in Maine
For the first couple of weeks after the Solstice, the length of day only declines by a few seconds per day. But the rate of change keeps increasing until the Equinox, around September 21, at which time the length of day is changing by 3 minutes per day.
June 21, the date of the Summer Solstice. Because Cartagena is so near the equator, at 10 25N, there isn't much difference in the length of the day. The longest day of the year is June 21, with 12 hours 44 minutes of daylight, and the shortest day of the year, Dec 21, still has 11 hours 31 minutes of daylight.
The Act extended Daylight Saving Time by four weeks from the second Sunday of March to the first Sunday of November, with the hope that it would save 10,000 barrels of oil each day through reduced use of power by businesses during daylight hours. so the answer is pretty much 10,000 barrels of oil each day!!!
On the first day of spring you get 12 hours of each (it's the equinox). After that you get more daylight every day until the last day of spring ... how much more depends on how far from the equator you live.
All of the equator has daylight- every day.
After June 21st, each day gets progressively shorter until December 21st, which marks the Winter Solstice. The amount of daylight lost each day varies depending on the latitude, but on average, it decreases by a few minutes each day during that period.

There is a very minimal amount of daylight in the North Pole. By the equator, there is much more sunlight and a much more warmer climate.
There are no studies on this
at any given times,how much of earth is in daylight and how much is in darkness?

Roughly, June 26th is the longest daylight time in a year. After that, each day will slowly grow shorter...If you watch the weather on the news and when they talk about sun rise and sun set each and every day, you'll start noticing sun rise will slowly gain minutes, while sun set will slowly lose minutes. And December 26 is rougly is the shortest daylight time in a year--then the cycle starts over--this time in the opposite way.
