What are the 4 main direction of the earth?
North, East, South, West.
Is the west the same as the north and south hemisphere?
No, the west refers to the direction on a compass, while the north and south hemisphere refer to divisions of the Earth based on latitude. The west is a cardinal direction, whereas the north and south hemisphere are geographical regions divided by the equator.
What direction is halfway between south and west?
south-west
10 south of west is a way measure of the direction between south and west?
"10 south of west" means there is a 10-degree angle between due south and the direction pointing towards the west. It indicates a direction that is slightly south of west.
What is the circumference of the Earth in miles in North South direction and East West direction?
The circumference of the Earth is approximately 24,901 miles (40,075 kilometers) when measured around the equator (East-West direction). In contrast, the circumference measured from pole to pole (North-South direction) is about 24,860 miles (40,008 kilometers). This slight difference is due to the Earth's oblate spheroid shape, which causes it to be slightly flattened at the poles.
What direction would you be traveling if you flew over mt. Everest and then over the nile river?
Any direction between due west and southwest
Which direction would you go from Yangon to Manila?
west south west or south west
What is the direction opposite west?
South and east
Is the direction of rotation same at the south pole?
The absolute direction of rotation is always the same (from East to west). How we describe that direction depends on the frame of reference we use. Conventionally we look from above the North pole and say the Earth rotates anticlockwise (from East to West). If your reference frame was a view above the South Pole then you would say the Earth otated clockwise (from East to West).
Why is everything south of the North Pole?
It is the northern most point on Earth. You cannot go west or east of it, so the only direction is south. At the South Pole, you can only go north. The Earth rotates based on the North Pole and South Pole. There is no east or west pole.
What is the opposite direction to south East?
North west
Which side is east?
Going from one place on the earth's surface to another place means you must move in some direction. The most important directions are called cardinal directions. They are north, south, east, and west. The North Pole is the most northern point on the earth's surface. The South Pole is the most southern point. No matter where you are standing on the earth's surface, north is toward the North Pole and south is toward the South Pole.East is the direction that the earth turns and is the direction of the sunrise. West is the direction that is exactly opposite east. It is the direction of the sunset.If you know one direction, you can figure out all of the others. When you face north, south will be straight behind you. East is to your right and west is to your left.If you face south, north is behind you, east is on your left, and west is on your right.To describe directions that are not exactly north, south, east, or west, it is necessary to combine them. For example, the direction halfway between north and west is called northwest. The direction halfway between south and east is called southeast. These new directions are called intermediate directionsbecause they show directions in-between the four mainSo east is facing to the right side.
