Are Days and nights equal at a solstice?

No. That would be an Equinox. The solstice is when the earth is tilted at maximum angle, (23 1/2 degrees) from the plane of the orbit around the sun. Either north or south pole is closer. The exact difference of night and day will vary depending on where you are on earth.


What is the day and night length for each season?

The length of day and night varies throughout the year due to the tilt of the Earth's axis. In general, during the spring and fall equinoxes, day and night are approximately equal at around 12 hours each. During the summer solstice, days are longer and nights are shorter, while during the winter solstice, nights are longer and days are shorter.


What days and nights all over the world are equal in length?

no


Can you predict seasons?

The seasons are already figured out . . . the seasons change on the equinoxes (days and nights of equal length) and on the soltices (days and nights are the most different in length)


The length of the days and nights is equal at the?

At the Equator at the two Equinoxes, Spring and Fall.


Why does equator receive equal day and night on 21 June?

June 21st is the summer solstice in the Northern hemisphere, and for the northern hemisphere it is the longest day of the year. In the Southern hemisphere June 21st is the winter solstice. This means it is the shortest day of the year. This happens due to the earth's 23 degree tilt. The equator, however, is right between the hemispheres. So the days and nights are of equal length.


Does any place on the equator have equal day and night on June solstice?

No, places on the equator do not have equal day and night on the June solstice. This phenomenon, known as the equinox, occurs when the tilt of the Earth's axis is perpendicular to the sun's rays, resulting in approximately equal day and night lengths.


What are solstics and aquinoxes?

On a solstice, the sun is at either the highest point (summer) or the lowest point (winter) that it will ever be in the sky for an observer. On an equinox, the length of the night is equal in time to the length of the day (there is as much light during the day as their is darkness).


Use the word solstice in a sentence?

"After the long winter, people were looking forward to the coming of the vernal equinox and warmer weather." "On the equinox, the days and nights are of equal length across the planet."


Why are daylight and nighttime of equal length at the equinox?

Yes they are equal because equinox means equal nights.


What is the name given to longer days and shorter nights?

The longest day, 21st June is the Summer Solstice. The shortest day , 21st December is the Winter Solstice. The days of equal day and nights , 21st March, and 22nd September are the Vernal Equinox and the Autumnal Equinox , respectively. This data applies in the Northern Hemisphere only. In the Southern Hemisphere the data is reversed. The longest day, 21st December is the Summer Solstice. The shortest day , 21st June is the Winter Solstice. The days of equal day and nights , 21st March, and 22nd September are the Autumnal Equinox and the Vernal Equinox , respectively. NB the word 'vernal' is the adjective for 'Spring'.


How does the position of earth determine whether it is one of the solstice or equinox days?

The solstices occur at the points where the Earth is either closest to, or farthest away from, the Sun. The equinoxes are the mid-points between the solstices - where the day & night are of equal length.
