Are Lines of longitude and latitude are used for locating certain points on the globe?
Yes. The intersection of a line of longitude and a line of latitude is a point on the globe, and that point is identified by the longitude and latitude of those lines.
What is the Network of parallels and meridians on the globe is called?
You mean latitude and longitude?
Where do the lines that run north to south come together at?
If you mean the longitude lines, as seen on a globe, they meet at the North Pole and at the South Pole.
Where do lines of longitude converge (meet)?
-- All lines of longitude meet at the north and south poles. -- No two lines of latitude ever meet or cross each other. -- Every line of longitude crosses every line of latitude. -- Every line of latitude crosses every line of longitude. -- There are an infinite number of each kind, so there are an infinite number of places where a line of longitude crosses a line of latitude. (That's kind of the whole idea of the system.)
What is the lines that run north and south on a globe and intersect the poles?
If you pick a longitude and mark a dot at every point on Earth with that longitude, the dots will form a line between the north and south poles. The imaginary line is called the "meridian" of that longitude.
A line of longitude use that in a sentence?
The Prime Meridian is a line of longitude that passes through Greenwich, England, and is used as the starting point for measuring longitude around the world.
Are Lines of longitude and latitude are used for locating certain points on the globe?
Yes. The intersection of a line of longitude and a line of latitude is a point on the globe, and that point is identified by the longitude and latitude of those lines.
0 degree line of longitude on the globe?
the prime meridian(:
What differs between meridian and longitude?
If you take a globe or a map and draw a line through all the points that haveexactly the same longitude, the line you get is the meridian of that longitude.
What is different between meridian and longitude?
If you take a globe or a map and draw a line through all the points that haveexactly the same longitude, the line you get is the meridian of that longitude.
Which lines on the globe all meet?
All meridians of longitude converge (meet) at the north pole and south pole.
How many degrees difference is t there between each line of longitude and latitude on the globe?
depends on the globe you look at
When finding longitude what is your first step?
Longitude refers to the invisible lines across the globe that mark off specific locations. In order to find a line of longitude, it is important to get a map or globe. Look for long lines that are spaced evenly across the globe.
What is the Network of parallels and meridians on the globe is called?
You mean latitude and longitude?
What imaginary line on the globe do longitude lines measure?
Longitude lines measure how far (in degrees) you are East or West of the Prime Meridian (which is a longitude line that runs through Greenwich, England and is designated as 0° longitude).
What is the number of the longitude line on the exact opposites side of the globe?
That completely depends on what line it's opposite from.
What do you call the lines on a map or globe that meet at the north and south poles?
Meridians - or lines of longitude.
