What else can I help you with?
What line creates northern and southern hemispheres?
equator
What are the names of the divisions the equator creates?
I think you meant the hemispheres instead of divisions, which are the northern and southern hemispheres.
What hemisphes are created by the prime meridian?
The eastern and western hemispheres. As opposed to the equator which creates the northern and southern hemispheres.
If you make a horizontal cut through a globe this creates what two hemispheres?
The Earth is a globe (an oblate spheroid) that is separated into the Northern Hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere by the Equator (zero degrees latitude). The Equator horizontally encircles the Earth.
What line creates the northern and southern hemisphere?
there is NO line stupid
How do longitude and latitude divide the earth into two?
Longitude lines run north-south and divide the Earth into the Eastern and Western Hemispheres, while latitude lines run east-west and divide the Earth into the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. The intersection of latitude and longitude lines creates a grid system that helps identify specific locations on Earth.
Why does the nothern and southern hemispheres have different seasons at the same time?
Because the Earth tilts at 23.5°, meaning that sometimes the northern hemisphere is leaning towards the sun, giving it summer, while the southern hemisphere is leaning away from it, giving it winter. At other times the southern hemisphere is leaning towards the sun, giving it summer, while the northern hemisphere is leaning away from it, giving it winter.
Why autumn and spring seasons occur in opposite hemispheres alternately?
Because - the Earth is tilted on its axis - by about 11 degrees. This means that, when the northern hemisphere is tilted towards the sun, the Southern Hemisphere is tilted away. This - combined with the position of the sun in its orbit around the Sun - creates our seasons.
What low pressure zone is found near the equator?
The Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) is a low-pressure zone located near the equator where trade winds from the Northern and Southern Hemispheres converge. This convergence of winds creates a region of rising air and often leads to cloud formation and precipitation.
Why does southern hemisphere experience winter and summer solstices indifferent times than that of the northern hemispheref?
The Southern Hemisphere experiences winter and summer solstices at different times than the Northern Hemisphere because the Earth's axis is tilted as it orbits the sun. When one hemisphere is tilted towards the sun, it experiences summer solstice, while the other hemisphere is tilted away and experiences winter solstice. This creates opposite seasons in the two hemispheres.
How are seasons in the northern hemisphere related to the seasons in the Southern Hemisphere?
It is winter in the northern hemisphere when it tilts away from the sun, and summer in the southern hemisphere when it tilts towards the sun. It is this tilting that creates the seasons.
What causes the phenomenon of the northern and southern lights?
The phenomenon of the northern and southern lights, also known as auroras, is caused by solar wind particles interacting with Earth's magnetic field and atmosphere. This interaction creates colorful light displays in the sky near the Earth's poles.
