See if you can answer the following questions (ask Google if unsure). Does the equinox and solstice fall on the same day every year?_________ Explain why:
Do these events occur simultaneously in all pars of the globe?__________ Explain why:
Are there any differences or similarities between the diagrams you have recorded for these events? Think aboout the position of the sun, length of day/night. Explain:
If sunrise is in Melbourne at 7.21 am a) what time will it be in Melbourne when the sun is rising in Perth (there is a 2 hour time difference between Melbourne and Perth) Explain why:
b) what time would it be in Melbourne when the sun is rising in Aukland, NZ (there is also a 2 hour difference between Aukland and Melbourne) Explain why:
Bonus question (optional): this is a tough one, you might need a map of the world or a globe to figure this out. My friend Ilke lives in Germany, I need to Skype with her during daytime at 10am. Note:
? there is 1 hour time difference between Germany and GMT ? Greenwitch mean time in London, England ? this is the place from which all time zones are measured.
? There is 10 hours difference between Melbourne and GMT What time here in Melbourne would I have to call? Can you draw your reasoning?
Would the time I have to call change depending on season? If so, can you explain why?
