Logically not, because no place on earth can have a latitude of 120° South. The
south pole is at latitude 90° South, and you can't go any farther south than that.
Yes, a place on Earth can be located at more than 90 degrees longitude as the maximum degree of longitude is 180.
However, a place on Earth cannot be located at more than 90 degrees latitude as it is already the maximum.
Because 90 degrees north is the north pole, and 90 degrees south is the south pole.
If you go more than 90 degrees north from the equator, you'll be completely over
the top, much like many of the questions you see here. When that happens, you're
coming down the other side, and you're less than 90 degrees north of the equator
on that side.
You haven't specified which meridian you have in mind, but it doesn't matter.
All the way around the earth is 360 degrees. 90 degrees east or west from
any longitude is 1/4 of the way around in that direction.
If two people start out from the same meridian, and one goes 90 degrees east
and the other goes 90 degrees west, then together, they travel around 1/2 of the
Earth. They wind up exactly opposite each other, and there's still another half that
they haven't touched.
Sure. 90 degrees is only 1/4 of the way around the globe.
-- 90° east from the Prime Meridian puts you somewhere on a line through
Russia, Mongolia, China, Bhutan, India, Bangladesh, and the Indian ocean.
-- 90° west from the Prime Meridian puts you somewhere on a line through
Nunavut, Canada, Wisconsin through Mississippi in the US, Mexico, Guatemala,
and the Pacific Ocean.
That whole strip between 90° east and 90° west covers exactly 1/2 of the Earth's
surface, leaving another 1/2 of it outside of that area.
Sure. For every possible number between zero and 180, there's both an east
and a west longitude.
The 90 west meridian joins the north and south poles, as every meridian does,
and passes through the Canadian provinces of Manitoba and Ontario, the states
of Minnesota, Michigan, Wisconsin, Illinois, Missouri, Arkansas, Mississippi, and
Louisiana very near New Orleans, then across the Gulf of Mexico, Mexico, Guatemala,
El Salvador, and the Pacific Ocean across the Galapagos Islands and Antarctica, to
the south pole.
No. The maximum number for latitude is 90 degrees, either north or south.
45 S 47 W is a point in the South Atlantic Ocean. There is no city at that location.
No it is not !... You can only have values for north or south coordinates in the range of 0 to 90.
It might be possible, but it would require some fancy and expensive engineering. That point is located in the Pacific Ocean, about 770 miles northeast of Honolulu and 1,950 miles west of San Diego.
"1 degree north" describes a circle that goes all the way around the earth, parallel to the equator and about 70 miles north of it. There is no such coordinate as "101 degree south". The greatest possible latitude number is 90 degrees, at the north and south poles.
You cannot be more than 90° South, so there is no such location on the planet.
No, because the south pole is only 90 degrees south.
Lime, Peru
45 S 47 W is a point in the South Atlantic Ocean. There is no city at that location.
Akureyri is one degree south. Reykjavik is two degrees south.
No, it is not possible. From the Equator (zero degrees latitude) to the South Pole (90 degrees south) means that 120 degrees south is not impossible.Even if we swopped things around: 30°00'00.0"S 120°00'00.0"W we end up in the South Pacific Ocean. The nearest land is the Pitcairn Islands 24.3768° S, 128.3242° W, quite a distance away.
There is no such city because longitude only measures east and west and not north and south.
34 S 58 W is Colonia Department, Departamento de Colonia, Uruguay, South America. The nearest Uruguay city is Montevideo, or across the River Plate, is the Argentina city of Buenos Airies.
No it is not !... You can only have values for north or south coordinates in the range of 0 to 90.
It might be possible, but it would require some fancy and expensive engineering. That point is located in the Pacific Ocean, about 770 miles northeast of Honolulu and 1,950 miles west of San Diego.
There's no city there, and really none within any reasonable distance. That point is far out at sea south of Japan, about 380 miles east of Miyazaki, and about 190 miles south of Hamamatsu.
