That completely depends on how far you live from the equator.

If you live at the north or south pole, then there are six months in the year

when the sun never sets. That's 262,966 minutes of continuous sunshine.

How many hours of darkness in 1 year?

It depends on where you are Not Really, If you live on the Equator, Every 24 hour period has 12 hours of daylight, and twelve hours of darkness. For every one else, there are only two 24 hour periods during the year When daylight hours equal night hours. These two days are the Vernal and Autumnal Equinox. (Equinox means equal). If you account for the differences in the number of daylight and dark hours in a 24 hour period, over an entire year, the average is 4380 hours each for daylight and darkness.


What two months of the year are when half the countries are night but half are daylight?

June and July.


Why does the Arctic have 24 hours of darkness and 24 hours of sunlight at different times of the year?

The arctic has 24 hours of darkness ans 24 hours of daylight at different parts of the year because of Earth's tilt on it axis. When it is summer, the arctic is in constant daylight because it is constantly receiving sunlight. The arctic region is facing towards the sun all summer. During winter, it is the complete opposite, it is in constant darkness because the arctic is facing away from the sun all winter


How many minutes a week does the daylight get longer?

It is not a linear process but a sinusoidal process. The daylight period increases most rapidly at the Spring equinox. The rate of increase slows to 0 at the Summer solstice, after which it starts decreasing. The rate of decrease reaches a maximum at the Autumn equinox after which it starts easing up. It reaches 0 at the Winter solstice after which it starts increasing until the Spring. Remember, though that Spring in the Northern hemisphere is offset by six months compared to the Southern hemisphere, and so on. Thus, when daylight hours are increasing in the Northern hemisphere, they are decreasing in the Southern hemisphere. The periodicity of this process is a year. The rate of maximum increase (or decrease) per week depends on the latitude. In the polar regions, the day length reaches 24 hours during the Summer and cannot increase further. Similarly, during the Winter, daylight length decreases to 0 and cannot decrease further.


Which location of the earth is 12 hours of daytime and 12 hours of darkness?

There is no place on Earth that always has equal daylight and darkness.Every place on Earth has it on some day of the year, with the possible exceptionof the north and south poles.
