Longitudinal lines themselves are imaginary constructs, having no real width, and therefore, no angle to measure. The angle between longitudinal lines on a globe depend on how many longitudinal lines are used to encircle the globe. Assuming that all longitudinal lines are equidistant, the angle can be found by dividing 360 degrees by the number of longitudinal lines. Typically, a globe will be given 36 lines of longitude, so the angle between longitudinal lines is equal to 360 degrees divided by 36 lines, or 10 degrees.
Longitudinal waves are waves that are produced by disturbance that is parallel to that of the direction of wave or oscillations produced along the path of the wave. The longitudinal waves consist of areas of comressions, the center of which is in a crest, and areas of rarefactions, the center of which is in a trough. Crest in a transverse wave is the part of wave at the maximum above the isoelectric line (midline) and trough is the minimum below the isoelectric line. The example of longitudinal waves is sound waves.
