both september and march because they both contain equinoxes which is when the sun is at the highest altitude
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.
The shadows are shorter at noon because the sun is higher thus not casting a longer shadow put an object in the sun at noon then watch as the sun throughout the day the object will cast a longer and longer shadow as the sun starts to go down
Shadows are shortest at noon when the sun is directly overhead, creating a smaller angle between the sunlight and the object casting the shadow. As the angle increases in the morning and afternoon, shadows lengthen.
You would expect to find the shortest shadows around noon when the sun is at its highest point in the sky. This is because the angle of the sun's rays are more directly overhead, resulting in shorter shadows.
The shadow of the stick will be the shortest during midday when the sun is at its highest point in the sky. At this time, the angle of the sun's rays hitting the stick is the smallest, resulting in a shorter shadow.
The shortest shadow is at noon because the sun is directly above you
That is not necessarily the case. Since the midpoint of daylight hours is not necessary at 12:00.
At noon (12:00PM) because that is the time when the sun is on its highest point in the sky.
The shortest shadow occurs at noon.
local noon (not noon according to the clock)
At mid-day or when the sun is as close to overhead of you as possible. At this time, your shadow will be directly below you and not long, as it is at sunrise or sunset. If you want which day in a year the Shadow likely to be smallest than it is June 22
There will be no shadow because the sun will be directly over your head on the equator at 12 noon.
at noon the shadow is point sized {smaller} and in morning and evening the shadow is the longest.
It would be December in the Philippines if the shadow of a vertical flagpole is pointing southward at noon time. This is because in December, during the winter solstice, the sun is at its lowest point in the sky, causing shadows to be cast towards the south at noon.
Noon, because the sun is directly overhead.
Shadow Shadow follows horse around. At noon, sun is above, and shadow is smallest. at different times of days it's bigger - DaveyBoy Bay Sever - DunThoroughbred From All Servers Except White!!! :) hope you got it right guys!
