Approximately how many hours of daylight are received at the North Pole on June 21?
It depends on your location on Earth. At the south pole, there are 0 hours of daylight on June 21... until ~13,000 years from now when the Earth's axis of rotation will precess to give it summer in June.

At the north pole, the longest day of the year is six months long. The sun is up continuously, in the sky, above the horizon, and does not set for 6 months. June 21 is the day right in the middle of that period.
How many hours does the north pole receive on June 21?
Visitors to the north pole are presumably carrying the clocks they bring with them, so they'll count 24 hours on June 21, just as they would anywhere else. If you're asking about hours of 'daylight' or 'sun-up', then that answer is similar. If you're standing at the north pole on June 21, then the sun is above the horizon continuously, for the whole 24 hours. As a matter of fact, the sun has been up for the past 3 months, since March 21, and it'll stay up for another 3 months, until September 21.

Why is 21 of June the shortest day of the year?
Actually, June 21 is typically the longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere, not the shortest.

Conversely, the shortest day of the year occurs around December 21, during the winter solstice, when the North Pole is tilted farthest from the sun.
