No, 80 degrees N is not closer to the equator than 40 degrees S
No. 40 North is the same distance as 40 South, so 80 North is much further.
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.
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.
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.
The coordinates are 1.5 degrees north, 114 degrees east. So it is closer to the North Pole.
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.
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.
25 N
+25 is closer to zero than -30 is.
North. Everything north of the Equator is closer to 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.
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.
40 degrees south because it is closer to the equator, and the equator is where there is warmer climates
