The imaginary lines on the globe helps because it divides the Northern Hemisphere from Southern Hemisphere. Therefore, imaginary lines are helpful.

Why do mapmakers use imaginary lines on maps and globes?

These lines are not actually on the planet, but are imaginary lines used to help us find our way around the curved surface of Earth


What imaginary line goes around the earth from north to south?

The lines that run north and south are called meridians of longitude. (The north and south poles are the ends of every meridian, so each one only goes half-way around the globe.)


Which way does longitudinal lines go?

Longitudinal lines run from pole to pole, parallel to the Prime Meridian. They help locate positions east or west of the Prime Meridian on a map or globe.


What is the imaginary horizontal lines that go the same way as the equator?

The set of imaginary lines that are all parallel to the equator are the parallels of latitude. Whether they're horizontal or not depends on how you hold your map.


Which imaginary line runs all the way around the earth?

The equator is the best known such imaginary line. However, latitudes (including the Arctic Circle) are also imaginary lines encircling the earth as are longitudes.


Imaginary lines of force around a magnet?

Imaginary lines of force around a magnet are called magnetic field lines. They represent the direction and strength of the magnetic field. These lines provide a visual way to understand how magnetic fields behave and interact with other magnets or magnetic materials.


What do the A lines on the globe represent what do the B lines represent?

In order to answer that question, I'd really have to see your globe, to know what things are labeled 'A' and 'B' . You did say that they're "lines", so I could guess that they're steamship lines, lines of constant latitude or longitude, international air routes, contours of constant elevation, etc. But there's no way to know without seeing them.


What is another way to say latitude?

Lines of latitude are also called parallels.


Which imaginary line the equator or the prime merdian runs all the way around the earth?

No. These are called lines of longitude or meridians, one of which is the Prime Meridian running through Grenwich, England (and other places, of course), considered to be 0º longitude, thereby marking the beginning point for all other lines of longitude.The equator, on the other hand, is an imaginary line circumnavigating (running around) the globe at a point halfway between the two poles - in other words, it is crossed by the meridians at right angles.The equator, therefore is a line of latitude from which the degrees north and south of all other lines of latitude are measured. The equator is 0º latitude.
