Why it is warmer at the equator at the north pole?
The equator receives more direct light sunlight than the north pole.
Where is gravity strongest equator or north pole?
Force of gravity is proportional to the masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance. Only considering the force of gravity, it is larger at the equator. If you measure the weight of an object, however, countering gravity is the centripetal force of rotation, which will "subtract" from the force of gravity at the equator.
Where is more potential energy at pole or at equator?
The potentional energy is larger at the equator thanks to the moon:s gravity.
Why will you weigh more at the north pole than the equator?
An object weighs more at the north pole than at the equator for two reasons: Distance from the center of the earth, and earths rotation. The earth is not perfectly spherical, it's an oblate, wider at the equator than at the poles because it's spinning. As such you are slightly closer to the center of the earth when standing at the poles, than at the equator. Being slightly closer means that the gravity is slightly stronger, making you weigh more. Also at the equator you are spinning around the earths' axis with the rest of the planet, and this acts to reduce the measured weight of an object.
What place is farthest from south pole?
The farthest place north of the equator from the equator is the North Pole.
Is the north pole closer to the equator?
the north pole is the same distance to the equator as th south pole.
5. In what direction is the equator from the South Pole?
The equator is North, as is everything else on earth when you are at the South Pole. From the south Pole, every direction is north.The North pole is the northernmost point on Earth. The South Pole is the southernmost point on Earth. The Equator is a line running circumferentially around the Earth and is midway between the poles. The Equator is south of the North Pole and north of the South Pole.All lines of latitude -- including the Equator -- are north of the South Pole.
Is Antarctica to the south of the equator?
Yes. The arctic is at the north pole. The antarctic is at the south pole. The south pole is below the equator. The north pole is above the equator.
Are you more likely to survive in the north pole or the equator?
At the equator. Warmer climate, more plant and wildlife.
Is the equator north of the Argentina or South Pole?
The Equator is north of both the South Pole and Argentina.
What are the due north of the Equator?
The North Pole is due north of the Equator.
How many degrees the south of the equator is the south pole?
The south pole is 90 degrees south of the equator. The north pole is 90 degrees north of the equator.
