How does the length of daytime and nighttime affect the season change?
It all depends on your latitude. The closer you are to the equatorial latitudes, the more your days are equal in numbers closer to 12. In all other latitudes, the further you are up towards the poles, the larger the difference is of daytime and nighttime. At the equator, the days and nights are pretty much the same in summer and winter. But near the poles, summer is always in daylight and winter is always in darkness.
Why are two dates when we have equal amounts of sunlight and darkness no matter where we live?
The two dates when we experience equal amounts of sunlight and darkness, known as the equinoxes, occur around March 21 and September 23 each year. This phenomenon happens because the Earth's axis is tilted relative to its orbit around the sun, causing the sun to be positioned directly above the equator during these times. As a result, day and night are approximately equal in length worldwide, regardless of geographic location.
What can be said about the distribution of sunlight at this time(March equinox?
During the March equinox, typically around March 20th, sunlight is distributed evenly across the Earth, with the equator receiving direct sunlight. This results in nearly equal day and night lengths for most locations on the planet. As a result, regions in the northern and southern hemispheres begin to experience the transition into spring and autumn, respectively, leading to notable changes in weather patterns and daylight hours.
What is the length of daytime in the autumnal solstice?
Twelve hours and a few minutes. At the equinox, the length of day and night OUGHT to be equal, but the sunlight is actually refracted, or bent, down around the horizon. This causes the Sun to appear to be on the horizon when it is actually a couple of degrees BELOW the horizon. The same thing happens in the evening; the Sun is actually a couple of degrees below the horizon and setting, but the sunlight is refracted AROUND the curvature of the Earth and appears to set about 6 minutes later than it actually does.
If a is equal to b... then is not a equal to not b?
Yes. I'm assuming this is talking asking about boolean logic (the question makes little sense otherwise). If a and b are equal, then the complement of a and the complement of b are equal.
Why is twilight longer at higher latitudes?
The sun sets in a more slanted/diagonal direction at high latitude locations throughout the year (which is why twilight at these locations can be more than two whole hours), whereas at tropical latitudes the sun sets in a near vertical direction so the twilight period can only be 45-50 minutes.
What is it called when darkness is equal to light?
Twilight.
Is there more vocabulary in twilight then hunger games?
No, they are equal.
What zone on earth has the most variation between seasons equatorial latitudes subtropical latitudes intermediate latitudes polar latitudes or all have an equal amount of change between seasons?
Polar latitudes experience the most variation between seasons, with long, harsh winters and brief, cool summers. Equatorial latitudes have the least variation, with consistently warm temperatures year-round. Subtropical and intermediate latitudes fall somewhere in between, with noticeable changes in temperature and weather patterns between seasons.
What must be equal to the amount of sunlight reflected plus the amout absorbed?
The amount of sunlight reflected plus the amount absorbed must be equal to the amount of sunlight that hits the surface (incident sunlight) in order to account for all the incoming solar radiation.
When the legth of sunlight is equal over the earth?
eclips
The general trend of the isotherms are from north to south or east to west?
The general trend of isotherms is typically from north to south. Isotherms show lines of equal temperature, so they tend to shift in a north-south direction due to the tilt of the Earth's axis and the distribution of sunlight across latitudes.
Which map is an equal area projection where latitudes are represented by parallel lines but longitudes are represented by ellipses?
The map you are referring to is likely the Mollweide projection. It is an equal-area projection that represents latitudes as straight parallel lines and longitudes as elliptical arcs. This projection aims to minimize distortion in terms of area, but distorts shapes and distances.
What is the name given to the two days of the year where there is equal sunlight?
equinox
Occurs when both hemispheres receive an equal amount of sunlight?
Polar regions
Why is the fist day of Fall important?
It is an equinox. That means equal day, equal night. 12 hrs of sunlight 12 hrs of darkness.
What word means equal amounts of sunlight and night time?
The word "equinox" basically means that.
