Which of the following is not true about noon in the northern hemisphere, on january 1? the sun has reached its highest altitude for that day. your shadow is the shortest it will be that day. your shadow points due north. the sun is directly overhead.

Choice (C) is the only incorrect choice. At noon in the northern hemisphere, there will be almost *no* shadow from a person standing outside. The shadow will not point in any measurable direction, since the sun is directly overhead and shining straight down on the person or object.
