A year has about 365.24 solar days but 366.24 sidereal days. Therefore, there is one fewer solar day per year than there are sidereal days, similar to an observation of the coin rotation paradox. [5] This makes a sidereal day approximately 365.24 / 366.24 times the length of the 24-hour solar day.
For example, the year cannot be divided into twelve 28-day months since 12 times 28 is 336, well short of 365. The lunar month (as defined by the moon's rotation) is not 28 days but 28.3 days. The year, defined in the Gregorian calendar as 365.2425 days has to be adjusted with leap days and leap seconds. Consequently, these units are now all ...

3. Spread pizza cheese, gorgonzola cheese and apples over the second tortilla. 4. Place tortillas in an air fryer basket, and cook for 4 minutes at 200C. 5. Serve warm. Mini pizzas with ...
The paradox is related to sidereal time: a sidereal day is the time Earth takes to rotate for a distant star to return to the same position in the sky, whereas a solar day is the time for the sun to return to the same position. A year has around 365.25 solar days, but 366.25 sidereal days to account for one revolution around the sun. [6]
If you're reheating pizza that is a few days old and has potentially dried out a bit, Brooks also notes that you can add a small cup of water to the air fryer basket while it's cooking.
A mean solar day is about 3 minutes 56 seconds longer than a mean sidereal day, or 1 ⁄ 366 more than a mean sidereal day. In astronomy, sidereal time is used to predict when a star will reach its highest point in the sky. For accurate astronomical work on land, it was usual to observe sidereal time rather than solar time to measure mean solar ...
