Why is the sun visible for more than 24 hours during Dakshinayan in the region between the Antarctic Circle and the South Pole? |
|
Answer» (i) Sunrays are never perpendicular on any of the parallels between Tropic of Cancer & the North pole or between Tropic of Capricorn & the South pole. (ii) In the period from 23rd September to 21st March (Dakshinayan) the region between Antarctic circle and the south faces the sun. The whole of Antarctic Circle falls within the zone of illumination. |
