Question

What is the position of the Earth when he day is longer than the night in the Southern Hemisphere?

Answer 1

thanks for asking

Answer:

As the sun's rays fall vertically at the Tropic of Capricorn (23 ° S), a larger portion of the Southern Hemisphere gets light. Therefore, it is summer in the Southern Hemisphere with longer days and shorter nights. The reverse happens in the Northern Hemisphere. This position of the earth is called the Winter Solstice.

Answer 2

Answer:

On December 21 or 22, Earth's north pole is tilting 23.5 degrees away from our Sun and the south pole is tilted toward our Sun. This is the winter solstice, the shortest day of the year in the northern hemisphere. Twice each year — during the equinoxes (“equal nights”) — Earth's axis is not pointed toward our Sun.
