Is 20 degrees Southe closer to the equator or is 10 degrees north?
The "north" and "south" latitude references begin at the equator. So "20 degrees" north or south are both 20 degrees from the equator, and "10 degrees" north or south are both 10 degrees from the equator. 10 is closer to the equator than 20.
Which line is closer to the equator 30N or 15S?
25 degrees south (or north) is closer to the equator that 30 degrees north (or south).This has a lot to do with the mathematical fact that 25 is less than 30.The equator is the 'zero' of latitude; 'north' and 'south' start from it.
Is ninety degrees north closer to the equator than forty degrees south?
No, 40 degrees south latitude is closer to the equator than 90 degrees north latitude. All latitude originates from the equator, so as the number increases, the further it is away from the equator, regardless of north or south.
Is borneo closer to north or south pole?
The coordinates are 1.5 degrees north, 114 degrees east. So it is closer to the North Pole.
Which latitude is closer to the earths axis 90 or 40?
40 South is closer to the equater than 80 North. By definition, we start counting degrees of latitude from the equater in two directions: North & South. 40 N & 40 S would be equel distances from the equater.
Is 89 degree north closer to the equator than is 40 degree south?
No, 40oS is closer. The number of degrees is the angle/distance from the equator. North/South is simply the direction in which you are moving away from the equator.
Which is closer to the equator thirty degrees south or twenty five degrees north?
25 N
Which line is closer to the equator 30degrees south or 25 degrees north?
+25 is closer to zero than -30 is.
Is California closer to the north or south pole?
North. Everything north of the Equator is closer to the North Pole.
Is New York closer to the Equator the South Pole or the North Pole?
New York City is located at 40.7128° N, The Equator at 0°, and the North Pole at 90° N, the South Pole at 90° S. New York City is about 50 degrees from the North Pole, about 40 degrees from the Equator, and 130 degrees from the South Pole.
Why is twenty degrees north warmer than forty degrees south?
Twenty degrees north is warmer than forty degrees south because at twenty degrees north, the region is closer to the equator, where the sun's rays are more direct and intense. In contrast, at forty degrees south, the region is closer to the south pole where sunlight is more spread out and less intense, leading to cooler temperatures.
Is the Equator closer to the South Pole or the Arctic Circle?
The equator is the line that runs straight around the middle of the earth, at zero degrees of latitude. The North Pole is at 90 degrees north and the South Pole is at 90 degrees south, so they are both equidistant from the equator. The Arctic Circle is a line of latitude that runs around the earth at 66 degrees and 33 minutes north, that means that it is closer to the equator than the South Pole.
