∙ 15y agoThere are two major lines between the Equator and the South Pole. The Antarctic Circle is at 66 degrees 32 minutes S latitude and marks the point on the Earth's surface where the Sun does not appear above the horizon at the southern Winter Solstice. It also marks the northernmost point of the Antarctic Frigid Zone. The Tropic of Capricorn is at approximately 23 degrees 30 minutes S latitude and marks the point on the Earth's surface where the Sun is directly overhead at the southern Summer Solstice. It also marks the southernmost point of the Tropic Zone.

Australia is what of the equator?
The only equator is the equator of the Earth, that is, its center line which is half way between the north pole and the south pole. Australia (which means 'south place') is well south of the equator.
Which continents are between the equator and the south pole?
Antarctica, australia, half of africa and most of south america.
Would it be faster to travel to the north pole or the equator when you are in Madison Wsconsin?
It would be closer to the Equator, but just barely. Madison, Wisconsin is about 185 miles south east of Cadott, Wisconsin. Cadott is pretty much exactly half way between the North Pole and the Equator.
Is the Arctic Circle or the South Pole closer to the Equator?
what is the distance north and south of the equator: Latitude.
The northern hemisphere is located between the equator and what point?
=the southern hemisphere is one half of the planet. which would be south of the equator so, from the equator which equals zero to 180 degrees from the equator== hemisphere= half ball== 180 degrees+180 degrees=360 degrees which is the amount of degrees in a ball=

Does the nearness to the equator or the South Pole affect Puerto Rico?
The equator is what gives it the high year around temperatures. It is more than a half a world away from the South Pole.
How many degrees of latitude between north and south pole?
Latitudes range from zero at the equator to 90° N at the north pole, and from zero at the equator to 90° S at the south pole. That's a total of 180° from one pole to the other ... exactly as you'd expect for a trip half-way around the globe.
How many degrees are between the north amd south poles?
90. The whole sphere (pole to pole to pole) is 360.
The northen hemisphere is the half of the globe located?
North of the equator, i.e. between the equator and the north pole.
What do you mean by area between equator and the pole?
The surface of the upper half or the lower half of the Earth as we usually envision it.
What is half the earth between the equator and south pole called?
That's called the Earth's "southern hemisphere".
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.
