How many degrees of longitude does the sun appear to move each hour if it moves 360 degrees in 24 hours?
360 divided by 24 equals 15. The sun appears to move 15 degrees each hour, or one degree every four minutes.
What happens when the Earth turns on itself?
There will be a geological civil war, where parts of the earth are working to destroy other parts. Tidal waves will drown the volcanos. Hurricanes shall storm across the deserts. Continents will simply rip apart, only to collide with each other at great speed. Nothing will be left, but ash, and dust.
What is a type of faults that causes earthquakes?
The earth's crust is divided into many plates. When these plates push against each other very hard, one of the plates overlap another. This causes earthquakes.
Which parts of the earth were covered by ice sheets?
Ice sheets covered almost all of Canada and parts of the United States, Europe, and South America during each of it's glacial advances.Enormous volumes of the world's water were frozen in these ice sheets.
Which of these spheres do each of the five branches of earth science study?
Which of these spheres do each of the five branches of earth science study?
If a circle is divided into 360 equal parts what is the degree measure of the 360 angles?
A circle is divided into 360° and each of them is 1° ■
If a circle is divided into 6 parts what is the degree measure for each of the 6 angles formed?
60 degrees !
If a circle is divided into 360 equal parts what is the degree measure of each of the 360 angles?
1
If a circle is divided into 15 equal parts what is the degree measure for each of the 15 angles formed?
360 degrees divided by 15 =24 degrees :-)
If a circle is divided into 6 equal parts what is the degree measure of the 6 angle forms?
60 degrees each.
If a circle is divided into 12 equal parts what is the degree measure for each 12 angles formed?
each of the twelve angles will be 30 degrees? each of the twelve angles will be 30 degrees?
Is each degree of latitude divided into 360 minutes?
A "line" of latitude is a circle that goes all the way around the earth, parallel to the equator. The "line" is made up of all the points on Earth that have the same latitude, and any latitude you name makes a different "line". The"line" is not divided up into any parts. Latitude is an angle. Latitudes are described in units of angles, usually degrees and parts of a degree. There are 60 minutes in one degree of angle, and 60 seconds in one minute of angle.
What is each degree of latitude divided into?
Each degree of latitude is divided into 60 minutes, and each minute is further divided into 60 seconds.
How many portion is each minute of latitude divided?
Each degree of latitude is divided into sixty minutes. Each minute of latitude can be divided into seconds and then those seconds can be divided more.
How are major parts of the earth system related to each other?
How are the major parts of the earth system related to each other
Each half of earth is called?
Each half of the earth is called a hemisphere. These are divisions of Earth's sphere that follow longitudinal and latitudinal lines to divide the earth into two parts. Earth can either be divided into to northern and southern hemispheres or eastern and western hemispheres.
What do minutes and seconds have to do with longitude and latitude?
Each degree is divided into 60 minutes, each of which is divided into 60 seconds - as for angles in a circle. This can cause confusion since the minutes and seconds do not correspond to their use in measuring time.The earth rotates through 360 degrees in 24 hours. This means that the earth rotates 1 degree = 60 minutes (angle) in 4 minutes (time).Hope I got that last bit right!
