What else can I help you with?
Which of these are magnetic poles east and west or north and south or red and blue or up and down?
North and south are magnetic poles. Magnetism is a fundamental force that exists between these two poles, which are attracted to each other. On the other hand, east and west, red and blue, and up and down are not related to magnetic poles.
In what direction do lines of longitude run?
Every meridian of constant longitude joins the north pole to the south pole.
What is a line that runs north and south called?
A line running north and south/ up and down is called a vertical line.
Which way do lines of longitude run?
North - South or South - North depending where you are at time
How does maglev trains stop?
The current flow is reversed in the opposite direction, which causes a retardation in the speed of the train.MagLev trains use the rule that like poles of magnets repel to stop. So, the electromagnetic track just changes so that all the South and North poles all meet other South and North poles and the train is repelled, slowing it down. They balance it out, and the train is stopped.
Is the continent of Australia drifting north or south?
The continent of Australia is moving north about 7 centimeters per year due to tectonic plate movement.

Why do you need two North Poles?
== == Earth happens to have two North poles, but it is not necessary. * The geographic north pole is one of the two places where the axis of rotation meets the surface. All planets and stars have one geographic north pole and one geographic south pole. * The north magnetic pole is the point where the magnetic field points directly down, and the south magnetic pole is the point where the magnetic field points directly up. Earth happens to have one magnetic north pole and one magnetic south pole at the moment. Mars doesn't have any magnetic poles. Our sun often has dozens of magnetic north and magnetic south poles in or near its sunspots.
What is laititude?
Latitude is a geographic coordinate that specifies the north-south position of a point on the Earth's surface. It is measured in degrees, with the equator at 0 degrees latitude and the North and South poles at 90 degrees latitude.
What are the cold winds that flow away from North and South poles?
The cold winds that flow away from the North and South poles are called polar winds. These winds are characterized by their low temperatures and high pressure, and they play a role in shaping global climate patterns. The polar winds help distribute cold air from the poles towards lower latitudes.
Where on the earth do you stand to be in the center of the earth's rotation?
The center of the Earth's rotation is technically its axis, which passes through the North and South Poles. So to be at the center of the Earth's rotation, you would need to be standing exactly at the geographical North or South Pole.
What latitude are the Arctic and Antarctic circles on?
Arctic and Antarctic circles are 66.5 degrees latitude, north and south respectively. Those are the locations farthest from the north and south poles where it's possible for the sun to be up or down for more than 24 contiguous hours at least once per year.
