How many months are in half the year?
6 months = a half of a year
15 months as a fraction of half year?
15 months/half year = 15 months/6 months = 15/6 = 5/2
How many months are in 3 and half years?
There are 42 months in 3 1/2 years. months in 3 years = 3 x 12 = 36 months in half a year = 6 therefore months in 3 and a half years = 36+6 = 42 months
How many months are in one half year?
In half a year there are 6 months. If you ment in one and a half years, then 18 months.
How many months is a year and a half?
18 months
Does antarctica have 6 months of day and 6 months of night?
Not all of it -- only a tiny region near the South Pole experiences 6 months of continuous daylight followed by nearly 6 months of continuous night. The North Pole has a similar division between day and night, each lasting one half of the year. However, practically all of Antarctica experiences at least 24 hours of continuous day or night, and weeks or months of continuous day or night occur in various locations. *Because of the width of the solar disc, and refraction by the atmosphere, there are about 2 or 3 more days of daylight per year than there are of night.
How much of earth is in daylight at any given time?
Approximately half of the Earth is in daylight at any given time due to its rotation on its axis, with one side facing the Sun (daytime) and the other side facing away (nighttime). This is why we experience day and night cycles throughout the day.
Does Alaska have six continuous months of daylight?
yes! they have sunlit days for half the year! =D
What is the duration of a full cycle on a planet where each day lasts for 6 months of daylight followed by 6 months of darkness?
Well friend, think of it as appreciating both the bright sunlight and the quiet night sky. In this special place, a full cycle would be one year long. Six months of beautiful light, followed by six months of peaceful darkness - truly a magical rhythm like brushstrokes on a canvas. Don't rush through it, savor every moment.
Why do countrys close to the poles have 24hour daylight in the summer?
It has to do with the tilt of the earth with respect to it's orbit plane. In the months of April to September the northern half of the globe faces the sun and the southern half is dark. During the rest of the year it's reversed.
How many months are in a half in a half year?
There are six months in one half of a year.
What would happen if earth axis were parallel to the sun?
I think you meant to ask: " What would happen if the Earth's axis were laying down flat in the plane of the Earth's orbit, so that one end of it pointed directly at the sun every six months ? " If that were the case, then Half of the Earth would have 24 hours of daylight once a year. On the same day, the other half would have 24 hours of darkness. Let's say you're at a place where it's 24 hours of daylight: The closer you are to one of the poles, the more days after that would continue to be daylight around the clock, for the next 3 months. Eventually, after that number of days, you'd begin to have nights, very short at first, but getting longer and longer for the rest of the 3 months. After 3 months, every place on Earth would have 12 hours of daylight and 12 hours of darkness. For the next 3 months, your hours of darkness would increase, while on the other half of the Earth, the hours of daylight would increase. After 6 months, your half of the Earth would have 24 hours of darkness, and the other half would have 24 hours of daylight. Now, the closer you are to one of the poles, the more days after that would continue to be dark around the clock, for the next 3 months. Eventually, after that number of days, you'd begin to have daylight, very short at first, but getting longer and longer for the rest of the 3 months. After 9 months total, every place on Earth would have 12 hours of daylight and 12 hours of darkness. For the next 3 months, your hours of daylight would increase, while on the other half of the Earth, the hours of darkness would increase. After a full year, your half of the Earth would have 24 hours of daylight again, and the other half would have 24 hours of darkness again, and the whole thing would repeat for the next year. Climate-wise . . . Wherever you are, your weather would get warmer and warmer during the part of the year when you have more than 12 hours of daylight, level off when you start having nights, and start getting cooler and cooler when you start having more than 12 hours of darkness. On the equator, the sun would oscillate between the zenith and the horizon twice annually, and would never set. So I expect the warmest climate would still be in a band around the equator. At each pole, the sun would be above the horizon for a solid 6 months, and then below it for a solid 6 months, just as it is now. But instead of taking 3 months to crawl 23.5° up from the horizon and the next 3 months to droop back to the horizon, the sun would zip from the horizon to the zenith in 3 months, and then take another 3 months to return to the horizon. I'm thinking that this would bake the poles mercilessly for half the year, and freeze them utterly for the next 6 months, so that, besides having the lowest average annual temperature, the polar regions would also have by far the widest extremes of temperature, and would be the harshest, most lifeless places on Earth, and would make today's polar climate look like a lush garden in springtime by comparison.
How many hours of darkness are there in one day?
It depends on where you are and what season it is. If you are at the equator then there is 12 hours of daylight and 12 hours of night. If you are above the arctic circle then during the winter there is 24 hours of darkness each day, this will occur on Dec. 21st. If you are further above the arctic circle the darkness can last for months. During the summer there will be 24 hours of daylight on June 21st, and again this can last for months if you are very far north. The same is true for the South pole as well.
Why is half the year day and half the year night in the Antarctic?
The Antarctic experiences half a year of continuous daylight and half a year of continuous darkness due to its location near the South Pole. This phenomenon is known as polar day and polar night, and it occurs because of the tilt of the Earth's axis as it orbits the sun.
How many months are in half the year?
6 months = a half of a year
Why does earth day and night?
Earth experiences day and night due to its rotation on its axis. As Earth rotates, one half of the planet faces the Sun, experiencing daylight, while the other half faces away from the Sun, experiencing darkness or night. This cycle creates the 24-hour day-night cycle we observe.
How does a planet create day and night?
During its rotation around its own axis half of the planet faces the sun [day] and half faces away from the sun [night] As the planet continues to turn so night slowly turns into day and then day into night and so on.
