Uranus spins about its axis every 17 hrs approximately.?

Question

Which of the following statements about the days experienced by imaginary observers living on Uranus is FALSE?

a) Observers near one of the poles could experience continuous darkness for about 40 Earth years.

b) For observers at moderate latitudes, the Sun rises and sets about every 17 hrs throughout the year.

C) The Sun can sometimes move in a circumpolar fashion for observers quite far from the pole.

d) Observers on the equator would see the Sun pass through their zenith twice every Uranian year.

e) The duration of daylight for near equatorial observers varies enormously at different times of the Uranian year.

Answer 1

e).

Regardless of the axial tilt, observers near the equator have nearly the same amount of time with the sun above the horizon as below. (On the other hand, at the solstices on the equator, the sun might be up for half the day but is still only a scant 7 degrees over the horizon. . . is that 'daylight?')
