Nowhere on Earth. But would be on the equator of any planet which has a circular orbit, and whose axis of rotation is perpendicular to the plane of the orbit.
Days and nights are of equal length on the equator of any planet (including Earth). That's kind of what "equator" MEANS. In the situation described above, days and nights would be of equal length everywhere on the planet's surface (and even then the requirement that the orbit be circular is overkill).

∙ 12y agoThis day is known as the Equinoix. It occurs twice a year near the dates of March 21/22 and September 22/23 (It can, and has, however occurred on other dates close to these, for example it has occurred on March 19 before).

∙ 11y agoThe term for this is called "equinox",- and it roughly happens around the 20th of March and 22nd of September. This phenomenon of equal day and night happens as the center of the sun is in the same degree as the Earth's equator.

∙ 7y agoNone; the equal hours are specific moments, not entire seasons.The "equal hours of daylight and nighttime" coincides (approximately) with the equinoxes. There are two of them:
1) Around 21 March. In the northern hemisphere, this marks the end of winter and the beginning of spring.
2) Around 23 September. In the northern hemisphere, this marks the end of summer and the beginning of autumn.

What country has only 12 hours of daylight?
All locations on Earth will experience 12 hours of daylight on the equinoxes. Area where it is spring or summer will experience more than 12 hours of daylight while places where it is fall or winter will experience fewer. The Equator always experiences 12 hours of daylight.
Why are daylight and nighttime of equal length at the equinox?
Yes they are equal because equinox means equal nights.
When on earth are there equal periods of daylight and darkness?
At some point there is a balance between the daylight hours and nighttime hours but I do not know the exact date or time period.
What occurs when the sun is directly above the equator and the number of daylight and nighttime hours are nearly equal?
It is called an equinox.
How does the length of daytime and night time affects the seasons?
The length of daylight or nighttime hours does not affect the seasons, but the seasons affect the length of daytime and nighttime hours. During the summer, the earth is tilted more toward the sun, resulting in longer daytime hours. During the winter months, the earth is tilted away from the sun, resulting in shorter days and longer nights.

On a solstice, it is only at the equator that the hours of light and dark are equal. At other parts, they would be different with one of the Poles experiencing 24 hours of daylight and the other Pole experiencing no daylight. If it is the June solstice, then it is the North Pole with 24 hours of daylight and the South Pole with none, while it is the opposite in the December solstice. It is at the equinox that the amount of daylight and darkness hours are equal around the world.
What are the seasons causes?
The cause of seasons is the tilt in the earth axis.Asthe sun,the northpole points away from the sun,and at the summer solstice it points towards the sun.thus more daylight[are closer to vertical]in summer and less in winter.it is the difference in daylight hours that accounts for the seasons.
What are the hours of daylight for summer?
