At 30 degrees north or south of the equator air descending to earths surface creates steady?
At 30 degrees north or south of the equator, air descending to Earth's surface creates steady high-pressure zones known as subtropical highs. These areas typically experience dry and stable weather conditions due to the sinking air suppressing cloud formation and precipitation.
What is the significants about the earths axis?
The earth is tilted 23.5 degrees. This is what creates the earths seasons. The two hemispheres (north and south) are always on opposite seasons.
What are the paralles of latitude?
The angular distance north or south of the earths equator, measured in degrees, along a meridian, as on the map or globe.
The longest parallel on the earths surface is the?
Equator is the longest parallel on the Earth's surface. It divides the Earth into the Northern Hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere and is located at 0 degrees latitude.
What is the name of the imagenary line on the earths 23.5s of the equator?
The Tropic of Capricorn is the imaginary line at approximately 23.5 degrees south latitude.
What are the circulation pattern cells in the earths atmosphere near the equator?
The circulation pattern cells near the equator are the Hadley cells. These cells involve warm air rising near the equator, moving towards the poles at upper levels of the atmosphere, cooling and sinking around 30 degrees latitude, and returning towards the equator near the surface. This creates a continuous loop of air movement in the tropical regions.
What is the projection of earths equator on the celestial sphere?
Celestial Equator
Where is earths circumfrerence greatest?
at the equator.
Calculate how many degrees of longitude you would travel if you traveled around earths equator twice?
All the way around anything is a trip of 360 degrees. If you do it again, your total doubles to 720 degrees.
What country doesn't touch the Earths equator?
Many countries do not cross the equator.
How many miles is in 0.25 degrees of the earths rotation?
360 degrees is the circumference, 25,000 miles round the equator, so divide 25,000 by 360 and then divide by 4 to find the number of miles in ¼ degree.
How many miles is the earths equator?
24,901.55
