What is distance north or south of the earth's equator?
Latitude. 2nd answer: Latitude is the wrong answer. Distance is measured in miles, feet, yards, meters, kilometers, and so forth. Latitude is a measurement of degrees, not distance.
A rope travels around the Earth's equator The circumference of the Earth is 25000 miles How far off the Earth would the rope be if you added 10 feet to it?
25010
Angle that describes the distance north or south of the equator?
Imagine you are at the center of the earth, the south pole beneath your feet and the north pole above your head.You see that north pole and south pole are in opposite direction hence the angle (or angular distance) is 180°now think about the equator. from your point of view at the center of the earth it is exactly in the horizontal direction, since north pole is vertically above ,the angular distance will be 90° (it will be the same for the south pole)
How wide is the earth?
The diameter of the earth at the equator is 41851443 feet, or 12,756.32 kilometers or 7,926.41 miles. The diameter of the earth through the poles is 41717290 feet, or 12,715.43 kilometers, or 7,901.002 miles. Thus the earth is 134153 feet, or 41 km, or 25 miles wider than it is tall, giving it a slight bulge at the equator. This shape is known as an ellipsoid or more properly, geoid (earth-like ball).
What is the circumference of the earth at 30 degrees north?
At the equator the circumference of the earth is roughly 40 000 km. To change this to nautical miles find out how many feet that is (times it by 3280 as thats how many feet there are in a km and then divide that answer by 6080 (feet in a nautical mile) to give you circumference of the earth at the equator = 21,578 nautical miles. Because the circumference at 60N will be much smaller we use 21, 578*cos lat (60 in this case). This gives us 10, 789 nautical miles.
What is the diameter of the earth in feet?
The distance around the Earth depends on the exact location but this answer presumes around the equator, this distance being termed the circumference. The circumference of the Earth is approximately 25000 miles. There are 5280 feet in each mile, and the conversion results in 132,000,000 feet. This is 132 million feet.
What is distance north or south of the earth's equator?
Latitude. 2nd answer: Latitude is the wrong answer. Distance is measured in miles, feet, yards, meters, kilometers, and so forth. Latitude is a measurement of degrees, not distance.
What is the distance from California to the equator?

What is Earth's circumference at the equator?
The circumference of the Earth measured at the equator is 24,901.55 miles, or 131,480,184 feet or 40,075.16 kilometers, or 40,075,160 meters.
How long is the worlds equator is in inches?
According to IAU and WGS-84 standards, the equator is approximately 40074 km around. There are approximately 39370 inches to a km, therefore the equator is approximately 1577752750 inches around.
If you built a concrete wall all the way around the Earth's equator that is two feet wide and four feet tall how much more would the Earth weigh?
it ways the same gomer (just google gomer)
What is the circumference of the earth in meters?
The circumference of the earth at the equator is 24,901.55 miles (40,075.16 kilometers). If you measure the earth through the poles the circumference is a bit shorter - 24,859.82 miles (40,008 km) This the earth is a tad wider than it is tall, giving it a slight bulge at the equator. This shape is known as an ellipsoid or more properly, geoid (earth-like). The reason the answer's 40 million meters is because one meter was defined in 1793 as one ten-millionth of the distance from the north pole to the equator (you'd have to go 4 times further to go all the way around - hence - 40 million).
