what time of year does antartica have its shortest days and longer nights
No, it actually has one of the shortest days, 11 Earth hours.
No, the length of a day remains the same during a solstice. The solstice marks the longest or shortest day of the year based on the tilt of the Earth's axis, but the actual length of a day (24 hours) does not change.
The month with the shortest days is December in the Northern Hemisphere, as it marks the beginning of winter and has the winter solstice, which is the shortest day of the year. In the Southern Hemisphere, June has the shortest days for the same reason.
42.
An equinox is not the shortest day. It has the same amount of daylight and darkness. The solstices have the longest and shortest days. The winter solstice is the shortest day of the year in terms of the amount of daylight.
The shortest day of the year, known as the Winter Solstice, occurs when one hemisphere is tilted furthest away from the sun, resulting in the least amount of daylight. This tilt causes the sun's path across the sky to be at its lowest point, leading to shorter days and longer nights.
cold for short days and longer nights
Winter. The shortest day is the 21st of December.
No. The cooling effect takes a bit more time to happen, so even after the days get longer it can still be getting colder. Most cold days are after the shortest day. It works the same the other way too, with the warmest days being after the longest day. In both cases, they can be weeks later. The length of day is only one factor in temperature.
Days got longer in Summer time of the respective hemisphere. In Northern Hemisphere, the summer will be from April to August with 22th June will be the longest day. While in the Southern, it will be from October to January with 22th December the longest day. For the shorter days, it the opposite...
The shortest day of the year is the first day of Winter, but the days start to get longer through the first day of Spring - when days and nights are equal - until the first day of Summer, which is the longest day and shortest night. From there, the days start to shorten through the first day of Autumn (or Fall) when the days and nights are again equal. The days continue to shorten until the first day of Winter when the cycle repeats itself. So, the seasons that have days that are shorter than nights will be Autumn and Winter. Typically, its the winter season.
