A) 22nd November
B) 22nd December
C) 22nd March
D) 22nd June
Correct Answer: B
Solution :

This is also the day of the longest day and the shortest night in the Southern Hemisphere. The opposite case takes place during June solstice - the longest day and the shortest night occur in the Northern Hemi- sphere and the shortest day and the longest night are observed in the Southern Hemisphere.
