What is the difference between latitude 30N and latitude 00S?
If you meant the degree difference, it is a 30 degree latitude difference between 30 degrees north latitude and 0 degrees longitude.If you meant the difference in features:0 degrees latitude is longer than 30 degrees north latitude.30 degrees north latitude is located in the northern hemisphere while 0 degrees latitude is located in the middle of the northern and southern hemispheres.
How can you determine your latitude in the northern hemisphere just by using a star?
The angle between the north star and your northern horizon is approximately the same as your latitude north of the equator.
Is the equator a 0 degree longitude that separates the eastern hemisphere from the western?
No. Sorry. Wrong on all counts. The equator is a zero-degrees-latitude line that separates the northern hemisphere from the southern. And you misspelled "separates" too.
Is there a north-eastern hemisphere?
A hemisphere, is the splitting up of the earth on the longitudinal and latitudinal lines at 0 degree. As such there can be a northern hemisphere, and an eastern hemisphere. However, there can be no North-Eastern hemisphere as this does not follow any 0 degree lines.
Which line of latitude is the longest and what degree is it?
The equator ... the line that contains every point on Earth with zero latitude ...is the longest parallel.
What is the name given to the zero degree line of latitude that divides the earth into Northern and Southern Hemisphere?
The Equator
Is Singapore In the northern or Western hemisphere?
Singapore is in the Northern hemisphere. But only just- Singapore's latitude is 1o 17', or 137 km (85 mi) north of the Equator.

How does latitude of the polar zone affects the climate in the area?
The polar regions, geographically speaking are due to the earth spinning on a 23 degree tilt. That means that on the shortest day of the year in Northern hemisphere the sun will not rise above the 66th degree of latitude. That 66th degree of latitude is called the Arctic Circle. If you stood on the arctic circle on Decemer 21st which is the shortest day of the year in the northern hemisphere at 12 noon you would probably just see a glimpse of the sun come up and then go back down again.A similar thing happens in the Southern Hemisphere but it happens on June 21st which would be their first day of summer. The 66th degree of latitude in the Southern Hemisphere is called the Antarctic Circle.
Is the equator a 0 degree longitude that separates the eastern hemisphere from the western?
No. Sorry. Wrong on all counts. The equator is a zero-degrees-latitude line that separates the northern hemisphere from the southern. And you misspelled "separates" too.
What is another name for the 0 degree parallel?
The parallel of zero latitude on the earth is usually referred to as the earth's 'equator'.
Is there a north-eastern hemisphere?
A hemisphere, is the splitting up of the earth on the longitudinal and latitudinal lines at 0 degree. As such there can be a northern hemisphere, and an eastern hemisphere. However, there can be no North-Eastern hemisphere as this does not follow any 0 degree lines.
What is the best roof angle for installing a solar electric system in the northern hemisphere?
Install solar panels at an angle equel to the latitude at the site and facing the sun. (This works in both the Northern and Southern hemisphere.) Examples: Montreal, Canada: Latitude 44 degrees 30 minutes (60 minutes in one degree, so you do the math... ;-) Cabo San Lucas, Baja California Sur, Mexico: Latitude 22 degrees 53.5 minutes.
Which line of latitude is the longest and what degree is it?
The equator ... the line that contains every point on Earth with zero latitude ...is the longest parallel.
How many one degree latitude are there in the Northern part of the globe?
90
What degree is the Arctic Circle?
It is the parallel of latitude that runs 66° 33′ 44″ (or 66.5622°) north of the Equator.
