The earths rotational axis is tilted approx. 23 degrees from vertical
The earths rotational axis remains parallel throughout its rotation around the sun, high summer (longest day) in the northern hemisphere, is when the top of the axis is at full tilt toward the sun. (shortest day in the Southern Hemisphere)

That hemisphere is tilted towards the sun to its greatest amount. It is the summer solstice in that hemisphere. The sun reaches its highest point and you have the most amount of daylight hours. The further from the equator you are, the more hours of daylight there is.That hemisphere is tilted towards the sun to its greatest amount. It is the summer solstice in that hemisphere.

well you would be standing on the sun were the summer is.
Only above the Arctic and Antarctic Circles experience 24 hours of daylight at any point. Being near the equator, the sun angle and hours of daylight don't change much throughout the year.
At the Equator, the length of daylight remains relatively constant throughout the year, averaging about 12 hours of daylight and 12 hours of darkness daily. In contrast, the UK experiences significant variations in daylight length due to its higher latitude, with longer days in summer and shorter days in winter. This means that during summer, the UK can see up to 16-18 hours of daylight, while in winter, it may have as little as 7-8 hours. Thus, the Equator has a more stable and consistent pattern of daylight compared to the UK.
We have more hours of daylight in the summer because the sun is higher in the sky.
In summer generally, there are 24 hours of daylight; in winter there are generally zero hours of daylight.
Summer in Australia is caused by the same actions that cause summer elsewhere across the Earth. It is caused by the tilt of the Earth's axis as it orbits the Sun. The way the Earth is angled towards the Sun at any given time of the year causes an increase or decrease in the number of daylight hours: summer is caused by an increase in daylight hours and a more vertical angle of sunlight.
In Washington during the summer, there are about 15-16 hours of daylight. This can vary slightly depending on the specific day of the summer season.
The sun rises at 06.30 hours and sets at 09.30 on a long summer day. That is 16 hours of sun!!
Iceland in the summer
yes

Has to do with the earths tilt and whether you live in the northern or southern hemisphere.
20.00 hours BST - is 12.00 noon Pacific Daylight saving - Pacific is 8 hours behind London
more hours of daylight
Twenty-four hours of daylight.
