It's because usually the farther you get away from the equator the colder it is north, south east or west and so on

What causes the global convection current between the equator and the polls?

The difference in temperatures between the Equator and the north and south poles, plus the rotation of the earth, causes the air currents.

How do temperatures change fom north to south?

Temperatures generally decrease as you move from the equator (south) towards the North Pole. This is because the angle of sunlight hitting Earth's surface is more direct at the equator, leading to higher temperatures. As you move towards the poles, the angle of sunlight becomes more oblique, causing temperatures to decrease.


What causes the poles to be slightly off the true North and South poles?

The Earth's magnetic poles do not align perfectly with the geographic North and South poles due to the planet's molten iron core generating a magnetic field that is not perfectly symmetrical. This causes the magnetic poles to shift and be slightly off from the true geographic poles.


Are the North Pole and the south pole geographical poles?

yes, the north and south poles are geographical poles.


Do North poles attract North poles?

No, North poles repel each other due to their magnetic properties. Like poles (North-North or South-South) will push away from each other, while opposite poles (North-South or South-North) will attract each other.


What causes ocean currents to move in different directions in different hemispheres?

North and South poles


Why do the north and south poles have different temperatures?

Because the earth pivots back and forth depending on the season so the poles never get the same amount of sunlight


Are there barber poles in north and south pole?

No, no barber poles at either the north or south pole.


What do we call ends of magnet?

North and South (Poles) :)


Opposite poles of magnet?

The opposite poles of a magnet are the north and south poles. These poles attract each other, meaning that the north pole of one magnet will be attracted to the south pole of another magnet. Conversely, like poles (north-north or south-south) repel each other.


Do a north and a north part of a magnet attract or repel?

Like polarities repel; unlike attract. So the north ends of two magnets repel each other, as do two south ends, while a north end and a south end mutually attract. North + North = Repell South + South = Repell North + South = Attract South + North = Attract
