why there is hardly any difference between the day and night at the equator but not so in the polar region [ans asap]
Dear Student,
a. There is hardly any between the day and night at the equator because sun rays hit directly at the equator and goes on decreasing as we move towards the poles.
b. The places here have exact 12 hours of day and night throughout the year, which however varies as we move towards North or South.
c. Since Earth is tilted on its axis by about 23.5 degrees and it revolves around the sun , as a result poles are tilted towards and away from the sun and experience variation in day and night .
Regards
