This is due to the tilt of the earth, known as axial tilt. The direction of the Earth's axial tilt, as well as its angle relative to the plane of the Earth's orbit around the sun, remains very nearly constant over the course of a year (both change very slowly over long time periods). At northern midsummer the North Pole is facing towards the sun to its maximum extent. As the year progresses and the Earth moves around the sun, the North Pole gradually turns away from the sun until at midwinter it is facing away from the Sun to its maximum extent. A similar sequence is observed at the South Pole, with a six-month time difference.
Why, yes ! There are two of them ... the north pole and the south pole.
because the earth is tilted towards the poles,so in summers the north pole will have continuous daylight for 6 months and south pole will have night for 6 months.Then in winters it will be reversed i.e. north pole will have night for the other 6 months and south pole will have continuous day light for 6 months. this proves that the poles experience day for 6 months and other 6 months they experience night.
It's even better than that! The north pole has 6 months of night-time andthe south pole has 6 months of daytime. They're the same 6 months, andDecember 21 is right in the middle of it.Maybe you can guess what goes on during the other half of the year . . .The north pole has 6 months of daytime and the south pole has 6 monthsof night-time. Those are also the same 6 months, and June 21 is right inthe middle of that period.
Both the north pole and the south pole.
Sunrise at the South Pole is on about the 21st of September every year. Sunset is on about the 22nd of March the following year. The reverse is the case at the North Pole. So a polar day is about 6 months and a polar night is also about 6 months.
impossible. the said phenomenon only occurs in north and south POLE.
Sunrise at the South Pole is on about the 21st of September every year. Sunset is on about the 22nd of March the following year. The reverse is the case at the North Pole. So a polar day is about 6 months and a polar night is also about 6 months.
6 months, just like the North Pole
