Question

The equator experiences 12 hours of day and 12 hours of night.Give reasons.​

Answer 1

Answer:

it's a equinox

Explanation:

earth revolves and rotates.

the rotation causes it to get more surface and thus difference in light, temperature and time.

and revolution makes it closer or farther than the sun.

hope it helps

Explanation:

Due to the Earth's axial Inclination (about 23.5 degrees) to the Plane of Earth's Orbit, the Poles of the Earth always point towards a fixed direction while spins and revolves around the Sun. For this reason, the Hemispheres shift from their respective positions in respect to the inclination i.e 23.5 degrees to the Equator and back during the annual trip around the Sun. The maximum departure from their original positions or shiftings affect the movements of the Poles (from 6 months to lesser durations, proportionately in reducing order according to the Latitudes of a particular location towards the Equator).

However, the Equator, being equidistant from the Tropics, Poles etc., maintains the same Angle of Tilt with the Orbital Plane of the Earth. Therefore the Equator faces the Sun perpendicularly throughout the period of revolution around the Sun of a year. Therefore the durations of day and night are equal on the Equator (the Zero Degree Latitude).

It's not only the days and nights are equal at the equator but there is No Seasonal Changes in the Equatorial Region of the Earth. The Climate is extremely Hot and Humid. This region receive high degree of heat and energy from the Sun. As a Consequence, the Annual Precipitation and Rainfalls of the World and Dense Rainforests are the Perpetual Features of the Equator and it's adjoining areas that extend upto 5–10 degrees Latitudes in both the Hemispheres.
