Are the latitudes in Iceland positive or negative?
There are no negative latitudes, its either north or south(of the equator). As you go up, or north from the equator, the latitudes go up. As you go south and move below the equator the latitudes go up as you move south. 63°17′N to 67°08′09″N, this is the range for Iceland.
Is earth in south east west or north hemisphere?
The equator is the imaginary central line that runs east and west along the earth, whereas, the prime meridian runs north and south. If we follow the equator we must move to the east and then north to arrive at the United Kingdom.Therefore the U.K. is located northeast from the equator.
As you move north or south from the equator the lines of longitude become what to one another?
closer
How does the angle of incidence change as you move away from the equator to the north pole or south pole on the march equinox?
secret
One degree of longitude equals 0 miles on the ground?
One degree of longitude represents about 69.1 miles along the equator. It dwindles as you move away from the equator, and is zero at the north and south poles.
What happens to the length of day as you move north of equator?
They become shorter.
What happens to the length of day as you move north of the equator?
They become shorter.
Does the sun move north or south at the equator?
The sun is north of the equator for 6 months every year, and south of the equator during the other 6 months. In order to accomplish these gyrations, it crosses the equator twice a year ... on March 21 moving north, and on September 22 moving south.

Does the temperature increase or decrease when you get to the south?
If you are North of the equator.....If you travel north, latitude increases,If you travel south, latitude decreases.If you are South of the equator.....If you travel north, latitude decreases,If you travel south, latitude increases.
What direction do most of the surface currents north of the equator move?
The current north of the equator moves clockwise.

How the gravitational acceleration will change when you move from equator to north or south pole on the surface of earth?
It will increase very slightly at the poles compared to the equator, because the Earth's radius at the poles is slightly less than it is at the equator.
