Determine the horizon angle of sunrise and sunset and calculate the noon sun angle (maximum zenith) for February 12 for Wayne, NJ, approximate latitude: 41 degrees north. (Use the closest equinox date for calculation of angular change).
Determine the horizon angle of sunrise and sunset and calculate the noon sun angle (maximum zenith) for July 15 for Wayne, NJ, approximate latitude: 41 degrees north. (Use the closest equinox date for calculation of angular change).
What latitude in the northern hemisphere would have a noon sun angle (maximum zenith) of approximately 53 degrees on May 10th? (Use the closest equinox date for calculation of angular change). This is a variation of problems we solved in class that will require some thought. (Hint: write everything out and work the problem backwards).
