half a sphere, something like half an orange or half of a globe.
A hemisphere is a half of a sphere and looks like a portion of a ball cut in half along its equator. It has a curved surface with a flat base where it was cut.
either a semisphere or a hemisphere
why does Orion looks odd in the northern hemisphere
When it is summer in the northern hemisphere, it is actually the southern hemisphere that is closer to the sun. This is because Earth's axis is tilted, causing one hemisphere to be tilted towards the sun and experience summer while the other is tilted away and experiences winter.
The constellation known as the Southern Cross or Crux looks like a cross. It is composed of four main stars and one minor star, and is visible throughout the southern hemisphere and the lower latitudes of the northern hemisphere.
Without going into too much complication, the First Quarter moon looks like a capital D in the Northern Hemisphere, a reverse capital D in the Southern Hemisphere and in the tropics, the First Quarter moon looks like a lowercase 'n' when it rises and an uppercase 'u' when it sets.
Curved surface area of a hemisphere means only the bent part of it , i.e,the part which looks like half of a sphere. Total surface area of a hemisphere is the circular top of a hemisphere + curved surface area of a hemisphere. So the formula goes like this: Curved surface area of hemisphere= 2πr2 Total surface area of hemisphere= 2πr2 + πr2 = 3πr2
There are about 29 major constellations in the northern hemisphere. Of these, Cassiopeia has a rough M shape and is circumpolar.
No; the sky looks entirely different in the Southern Hemisphere vs. the Northern Hemisphere.
Part of the constellation of Leo, with the star Regulus at the southern end, looks like a question mark written back to front. Leo is best seen on spring evenings in the northern hemisphere, or autumn evenings in the southern.
It is suggested that in the Southern Hemisphere people think with the right hemisphere of their brains and that this is why they prefer paperweights shaped like a hemisphere rather than like a cube.
