The Equinoxes.
There are two a year, coming half way between Midsummer 21st June and Midwinter 21st December when the days are longest and shortest.
Actually Equinox has to do with the position of the equator with regard to the sun and so they vary slightly year to year.
The Spring Equinox is March 20th or 21st and the Autumnal Equinox 21st or 22nd September.
This assumes you are in the northern hemisphere, otherwise reverse everything.
no
When night and day are approximately of equal length occurs twice per year. In the northern hemisphere these days are called the Vernal Equinox (20-21 March) and the Autumnal Equinox (22-23 September). However, as these seasons are reversed in the southern hemisphere, current usage is the March Equinox and the September Equinox.
The seasons are already figured out . . . the seasons change on the equinoxes (days and nights of equal length) and on the soltices (days and nights are the most different in length)
The word is "equinoctial" = equal day and night. It occurs twice a year, on the first day of Spring, and the first day of Autumn.
Days are longer during the summer solstice and shorter during the winter solstice. In contrast, during the equinoxes, day and night are approximately equal in length. Therefore, the statement that days are longer during a solstice is true, while the statement about equinoxes is false.
The equinox is when, twice each year, day and night are of equal length (about 22 September and 20 March).
The spring and autumn equinoxes, when day is equal to night in both hemispheres.
Aequabilis (adj) meaning Equal & Nox, Noctis (n, f) meaning Night.
Neither. All days are equal length.
The word "equinox" comes from Latin origins, where "aequus" means equal and "nox" means night. The term refers to the two days in a year when day and night are approximately equal in length.
1) Near the equator, year round. 2) Almost anywhere on Earth, around the equinoxes.
The days are of equal length
No. That would be an Equinox. The solstice is when the earth is tilted at maximum angle, (23 1/2 degrees) from the plane of the orbit around the sun. Either north or south pole is closer. The exact difference of night and day will vary depending on where you are on earth.
All days are are of equal length
no
When night and day are approximately of equal length occurs twice per year. In the northern hemisphere these days are called the Vernal Equinox (20-21 March) and the Autumnal Equinox (22-23 September). However, as these seasons are reversed in the southern hemisphere, current usage is the March Equinox and the September Equinox.
