What is the circumference of longitude at the prime meridian?
All meridians of longitude join the Earth's north and south pole, so the length of every meridian is 1/2 of the Earth's polar circumference.
Why north south distance is less than east west distance?
The planet Earth is not a perfect sphere and the length from pole to pole is slightly shorter than the distance at the Equator. The east-west distance around the Earth at the Equator (its circumference) is 40,075 kilometers or 24,901 miles. The circumference taken pole-to-pole (north-south distance) would be 40,008 km / 24,860 miles.This is due to the gravitational pull of Sun, which causes the Earth to be slightly squashed from North-South and stretched from E-W.
What is the name of the two far end poles of magnet?

Is Antarctic north pole or south pole?
The South Pole is an imaginary spot on the continent of Antarctica. You are getting confused by the over use of the terms North and South Poles as regions, when we should be using Arctic for the North, and Antarctic for the South.
What is circumference earth?
The circumference of the Earth at the equator is 24,902 miles. From pole to pole is 24,860 miles.
What are the Earth's pole-to-pole circumference and equatorial circumference measurements?
4000km,40,700km ... ur welcome.
Why aren't lines of latitude the same length?
Lattitude lines appear as concentric circles when viewed from above a pole (North Pole or South Pole). So as you approach a Pole, the circumference of the latitude line decreases.
Is there a imaginary pole going through the earth call the equator?
No- the equator is an imaginary line running around the circumference of the earth's centre. The earth's axis is an imaginary pole which runs from the North Pole to the South Pole
What is the Circumference of earth to pole to pole?
7,900 miles
What is the circumference from pole to pole?
You probably mean our Earth. The diameter d of Earth from North Pole to South Pole is 12,713.54 kilometers (7,899.83 miles), but through the equator it is 12,756.32 kilometers (7,926.41 miles). This difference, 42.78 kilometers (26.58 miles), is only 1/298 the diameter of Earth. Thus the Earth is 42.78 kilometers or 25 miles wider than it is tall, giving it a slight bulge at the equator. This is only 0.3 percent, too small to be seen visually. To calculate the circumference C use the formula: C = pi times d. pi = 3.141592654...
What is the circumference of earth from pole to pole?
40,007km (24,859.2 miles)
What is the circumference of longitude at the prime meridian?
All meridians of longitude join the Earth's north and south pole, so the length of every meridian is 1/2 of the Earth's polar circumference.

How many miles is it from the equator to the South Pole?
That's nominally 1/4 of the Earth's polar circumference, which you can easily find online.
