What is the Solar inclination at latitude 35 degrees north during winter solstice?
At the time of the winter solstice, the sun is 23.5 degrees south of the equator.That's 58.5 degrees south of latitude 35 degrees north.So, depending on your exact observing location on the 35th north parallel, the sun appears somewherelower than 58.5 degrees below your zenith, or less than 31.5 degrees above your horizon.(That's the highest in your sky that it can be, but it can be anywhere lower than that.)
What is the time of year when the sun is the northern most point on the ecliptic?
solstice
What is another name for the Summer Solstice?
Another name for the Summer Solstice is Midsummer.
Who experiences the summer solstice the same day you experiences the winter solstice?
That depends on whether you are in the Northern or Southern Hemisphere. If you are in the Northern, then your winter solstice is the summer solstice in the Southern Hemisphere. If you are in the Southern, then your winter solstice is the summer solstice for everyone in the Northern Hemisphere.
When is the solstice?
The winter solstice is on December 21st.
Why is the noon solar intensity greater on the summer solstice than on the winter solstice?
The noon solar intensity is greater on the summer solstice than on the winter solstice because the sun's rays hit the Earth more directly on the summer solstice due to the tilt of the Earth's axis. This leads to more concentrated solar energy reaching a given area, resulting in higher intensity.
What happens on a solstice?
A solstice is when day and night have an equal time, 12 hours in the day, and 12 hours at night. There is also a chance for a solar eclipse during solstices.
When does the 90o angle solar rays strike the Tropic of Cancer?
summer solstice, or june 21
When the sun is directly overhead at the Tropic of Capricorn what is it?
At that moment and at that location somewhere along the Tropic of Capricorn, it is solar noon. It also happens to be the moment of the summer solstice in the Southern Hemisphere, and the winter solstice in the north.

The two types of solstice you have?
summer solstice and winter solstice
What season has the shortest shadows and why?
Summer potentially has the shortest solar shadows because the Sun is more directly overhead. (This would be around noon close to June 21 in the northern hemisphere - Summer solstice - and December 21 in the southern hemisphere - winter solstice).
When do the Sun's rays strike the Tropic of Capricorn (23.5oS) most directly?
At that moment and at that location somewhere along the Tropic of Capricorn, it is solar noon. It also happens to be the moment of the summer solstice in the southern hemisphere, and the winter solstice in the north.
What Jewish festival is on the winter solstice?
There are no Jewish festivals specifically tied to the solar calendar or to the winter solstice. The Hebrew calendar is a LUNAR calendar, which is kept (roughly) in synchronization with the solar year by inserting "leap months". The relatively minor holiday of Hannukah is celebrated for eight days beginning on Kislev 25, a date that generally occurs around mid-December, and which occasionally overlaps the northern hemisphere winter solstice on December 21. However, Hannukah can start as early as the first of December, or as late as the 24th of December.
Which season does solor energy start to increase?
Energy from the Sun is constant. However, from any latitude on Earth, the tilt of the Earth's axis of spin means that the effective receipt of solar energy at that latitude will increase from the "winter" solstice for that latitude/hemisphere until the "summer" solstice latitude/hemisphere. Officially this time period covers the seasons of "winter" (from the winter solstice to the vernal equinox) and "spring" (from the vernal equinox to the summer solstice).
How many solstices happen in one year?
two The June solstice is the summer solstice in the northern hemisphere and the winter solstice in the southern hemisphere. The December solstice is the winter solstice in the northern hemisphere and the summer solstice in the southern hemisphere.
