What is a line parallel to the earths surface?
That would be latitude or longitude.
What coordinate system do you use to determine the location of a point on the earths surface?
Longitude and Latitude
What factors affect the coefficient of friction between two surfaces?
Surface temperature, Weight of the object, Roughness of surface and the object
How do you locate a place on the Earth's surface?
By Longitude, Latitude, minutes, seconds. Or use Google Earth.
Which factors determine the rate at which solar energy is received by a given area of the Earths land surface?
The factors include, Reflectivity of the area, Topography, Climate, Cloud cover, Vegetation, and Latitude.

What is the relationship between density and surface tension?
as we know the relation between surface tension and temperature is inverse, and that of temperature and density also has inverse proportion, then it is clear that the '''surface tension is directly proportion to the density'''.
Explain the relationship between latitude and sea surface temperature?
Sea surface temperatures don't vary by longitude. Sea surface temperatures are influenced by ocean currents; for example, the Gulf Stream current carries warmer water north from Florida to Massachusetts, and continues across the north Atlantic. If you're a hundred miles or so straight east from the Gulf Stream, the ocean temperature will be substantially cooler.
Which statement describes the general relationship between temperature and luminosity of main sequence stars?
as surface temperature increases, luminosity increases
Describe the relationship between the angle of insolation and the rate of heating a surface.?
The angle of insolation into a surface is largest when the surface directly faces the Sun. That coincides with the temperature rising. So the angle of insolation goes up as the temperature goes up.
What does the ozone do in the relationship to temperature?
Ozone causes global warming. It then increases the surface temperature.
What is a degree in relationship to Earth's surface?
It's 1/360 of a complete circle of longitude or latitude.
What is the relationship between the color and the temperature of star?
The relationship is that the color is an indication of the star's surface temperature. For example, red stars are cooler, while blue stars are hotter. You can find more details in the Wikipedia article "Stellar classification".
The ocean's surface temperature varies with latitude and?

What is the definition for latitude?
The latitude of a place is the angle corresponding to the shortest arc on the Earth's surface between the equator and that place.
What is the defference between latitude and altitude?
latitude is how north or south a place is from the equator. altitude is how high you are from earth's surface
What is the term latitude?
Latitude refers to the angle of the shortest arc on the Earth's surface between the equator and the place you're interested in.
