What occurs when the sun's most direct rays hit the equator and the day experiences equal amounts of light and dark?
The Sun is never ON the equator, it is above the equator twice a year - the spring equinox and the fall equinox.
What occurs when neither end of the earth's axis is tilted toward or away from the sun?
equinox.
How many times a years does an equinox occur?
liedlihqwlkhdaLDHLISHLSAD'S Equinoxes occur four times a year. The Vernal Equinox occurs in March, the Summer Solstice occurs in June, the Autumn Equinox occurs in September, and the Winter Solstice occurs in December.
An equinox occurs on the same day at the same time in both hemispheres?
Correct. The March equinox, which is typically March 21 but can vary by a day either way, is the spring equinox in the northern hemisphere, because the Sun us rising into the northern hemisphere. At that very same moment, it is the autumnal equinox in the southern hemisphere, because as the Sun is moving INTO the northern hemisphere, it is moving away from the southern hemisphere. The September 21 equinox sees the Sun moving south of the equator, so the spring equinox in the south, while it is the autumnal equinox in the North.
