What is the distance between 140 longitude and 130 longitude?
Along the equator, it's about 690 miles. In other places, the farther you are from the equator, the shorter it is. At the poles, it's zero.
How many miles in a minute of longitude in India?
Depends on your latitude, at the equator for instance, 1 minute of longitude = (1 / 21600) * 24901.55 = 1.1528 miles
How many miles are in 32 degrees of longitude?
At the equator (25000 miles) there's about 69.4 miles per degree, so about 2222.2 miles. At the poles there would be no miles. In nautical miles it's 60 miles per degree (of latitude, which stays the same).
What is the distance between two longitudes at the equator?
At the equator, the circumference of the Earth is 40,075.16 km ( 24,901.55 miles). Divide that into 360 equal pieces to get the distance for each one degree of longitude. A degree of longitude at the equator is equal to 111.32 km.
How many miles are in degree?
One degree of latitude, and one degree of longitude along the equator only, is equivalent to roughly 69.1 miles (111 km). One degree of latitude, and of longitude on the equator only, is also equal to about 60 nautical miles.
What is the distance of longitude at the equator and the poles?
The equator is a line made of points at zero latitude and every longitude, andevery longitude converges (comes together) at the poles..
How many miles are in one degree?
One degree of latitude, and one degree of longitude along the equator only, is equivalent to roughly 69.1 miles (111 km). One degree of latitude, and of longitude on the equator only, is also equal to about 60 nautical miles.
How many degrees the easth?
The Earth is divided into 360 degrees of longitude and 180 degrees of latitude. Latitude measures how far north or south a location is from the Equator, while longitude measures how far east or west a location is from the Prime Meridian. Each degree of latitude is approximately 69 miles apart, while the distance represented by a degree of longitude varies depending on the latitude.
What the Distance north or south of the equator?
Latitude measures North or South of the Equator in degrees. 0° is the Equator, and 90° N (or +90°) is the North Pole, and 90° S (or -90°) is the South Pole. Each degree of latitude is about 69 miles (or 60 Nautical Miles). Longitude lines (which run north and south, but measure east/west) get closer together as you approach either pole.
How wide is a degree of longitude?
69.2 statute miles at the equator, zero at the north and south poles.
How many miles does one degree of longitude cover?
That's going to depend on how far you are north or south of the equator. The distance between any two meridians of longitude is maximum along the equator, and it shrinks to zero at the poles, where all meridians of longitude converge (come together). One degree of longitude represents about 111.2 km (69.1 miles) on the equator. Anywhere else on earth, it would be 111.2 multiplied by the cosine of your latitude.
One degree of longitude equals 0 miles on the ground?
Actually, one degree of longitude equals about 69 miles on the ground. This is because a full circle of longitude, which is 360 degrees, corresponds to the Earth's full circumference of approximately 24,901 miles.
