The Equator is an imaginary line on the Earth's surface equidistant from the North Pole and South Pole that divides the Earth into a Northern Hemisphere and a Southern Hemisphere.
an imaginary line dividing the earth in half horizontally
^ The Equator is an imaginary line on the Earth's surface equidistant from the North Pole and South Pole that divides the Earth into a Northern Hemisphere and a Southern Hemisphere.
The band around the middle of the Earth, separating the northern from the southern hemispheres.
Earths equator is an imaginary line equally distant from both Pole's. It goes horizontally around Earth's middle.
^ It is also the point where both 0 degrees latitude and longitude orginate.This areas also reseives the most sunglican anually and is home to a region referred to as the Tropics.
What else can I help you with?
What type of satellite orbits perpendicular to the earths equator?
polar satallite
Why is the earths temp hotter at the equator?
Because the sunlight it receives is almost directly overhead all year round. the Equator receives the most solar energy.
What is the distance from earths surface to the center of earth?
That's the Earth's radius. It's about 6378 kilometers at the equator. That's 3963 miles.
What part of the earths system absorbs the most energy?
The area around the Equator receives the most direct sunlight, thus absorbs the most heat.
What Is Earths Position?
The circumference of the Earth at the equator is about 24,901 miles, or 40,075 km. Earth is not a sphere, but is "flattened" at the poles. or oblate spheroid.

Mercury
Why does the equator go sideways?
The tilt of earths axis makes the equator appear to be sideways.
Where is earths equator?
The equator goes though South Africa, Africa and new Guinea
Why do the poles receive the less solar energy than the equator does?
Because the middle of the earths surface is the hottest on earth and the equator is right in the middle and the poles is at the end of the earths surfaces
