Question

(d) Equal length of day and night occurs during _____________​

Answer 1

Marking the beginning of spring, the sun will cross the plane of the earth's equator on Monday morning, making day and night of approximately the same duration. The event, known as equinox, is eagerly awaited by space enthusiasts as it takes place only twice a year, on March 21 and September 23.

Answer 2

Answer:

Answer: During the spring and autumn equinoxes, i.e. on 21 March and 23 September, the Sun is exactly overhead the Equator and the North and South Poles lie at an equal distance from the Sun. This is the reason days and nights are of equal length throughout the world on these two days.
