The equator.
There are 23 hours and 56 minutes in the longest day - exactly as there are in the shortest day. How "long" or "short" a day is refers to how long there is sunlight in the sky. Many more hours a day in summer, many less hours a day in winter. But the actual length of the day on earth is always 23 hours and 56 minutes.
The hours of day light ranges from 8 hours (midwinter) to 16 hours (midsummer) in vienna.
"Short day" and "long day" refer to the duration of light and darkness in a 24-hour period. In horticulture, the terms are often used to describe the amount of light needed for a plant to flower. Plants that require short days will flower when exposed to fewer hours of light, while those needing long days will flower when exposed to more hours of light.
The duration of Light of Day is 1.78 hours.
One day = 24 hours That's twice as long as 12 hours.
day light
Probably not. Because if your day is only 23.5 hours long you are not on planet earth!
As in Day light hours: Depends on where you are in Russia, and what time of the year it is. St Petersburg in summer, it is 24 hours a day, for about 2-3weeks. In winter 24 hours!!
12 hours
No.... the light hours should be 12-14 hrs a day
At the time of the equinoxes (when the Sun is directly overhead at the equator) the Sun is up for 12 hours. This answer does not tell the whole story. The sun is always directly overhead at the equator. There is always 12 hours of daylight at the equator no matter what season. To a purist the sun is actually above the horizon for about 12 and half hours but only because of the atmosphere bending light rays. If the Earth had no atmosphere it would be just plain 12 hours and 12 hours.
There is no definitive answer to this question, but during the winter it is light for 1-2 hours per day and during the summer it is almost always light.
