Because the tilt of the earth is way from the sun so the USA is face up to the sun so we get more direct sunlight so we have longer days because there is more distance to cross before the sun goes down.

Does the northern hemisphere have more daylight hours on December 21st or June 21st?

The northern hemisphere has more daylight hours on June 21st, which is the summer solstice and the longest day of the year. December 21st is the winter solstice and has the shortest daylight hours of the year.


In the northern hemisphere why do periods of daylight get longer between late December and late June?

In the northern hemisphere, the tilt of the Earth's axis causes sunlight to hit the region more directly as it moves towards the summer solstice in late June. This angle of sunlight increases the length of daytime hours and results in longer periods of daylight.


How does the length of daylight change from Summer to Winter?

Well. June 21st or June 22nd every year is the longest day (most hours of sunlight), and December 21st or 22nd every year is the longest night (least hours of sunlight). So there is a 'shortening' of the period of light per day from June to December, and this reverses from December to June.
