Describe North America's location on earth and its climate How do these factors affect farming in North America?
North America is located in the northern and western hemispheres, bordered by the Arctic Ocean to the north, the Atlantic Ocean to the east, the Pacific Ocean to the west, and South America to the south. The climate in North America varies greatly, with Arctic conditions in the north and tropical conditions in the south. These factors have a significant impact on farming in North America. The diverse climate allows for a wide range of agricultural practices and crops to be grown, from wheat in the Great Plains to citrus fruits in Florida. Additionally, the long growing season in the southern regions and fertile soil contribute to making North America one of the world's largest agricultural producers.
If like magnets repel why does north pole of magnet point towards earths north pole instead of the south pole?
Think about this,What leads you to believe that it is the north magnetic pole of the earth that the compass is pointing to? See the link. The answer is a bit mind-bending. The magnetic pole of the earth that is located near our ' geographic north pole' is magnetically a 'south' pole. Strange but true.AnswerThe answer is simple and straightforward. And it's not strange in the least!The first and most important thing to understand is that the terms 'Magnetic North' and 'Magnetic South' describe locations, or directions, and have nothing whatsoever to do with the magnetic polarities of those locations. They are called 'Magnetic North' and 'Magnetic South' to distinguish them from 'True North' and 'True South', not to identify their magnetic polarities.The end of a magnet that points to the location, 'Magnetic North', was, for obvious reasons, originally named its 'north-seeking pole'. Over time, we have dropped the word, 'seeking', and we now call that end of a magnet its 'north pole'. As well as indicating the direction in which it points, it is also used to describe its magnetic polarity.As 'unlike poles attract', in order to attract the 'north pole' of a magnet, the earth's Magnetic North Pole location must have a south magnetic polarity.
What is the point farthest north on earth?
The (geographic) North Pole is the point farthest north on the Earth's surface, a point at 90 degrees N latitude. All lines of longitude converge at the geographic poles. The magnetic poles can fluctuate in location, and are at different points than the geographic poles.
What best describes Earth's north magnetic pole?
Earth's north magnetic pole is the point on Earth where the planet's magnetic field points vertically downwards. It is currently drifting towards Russia at a rate of about 10 kilometers per year. This pole is different from the geographic North Pole, which is the point where Earth's axis of rotation intersects its surface.
What is the The north magnetic pole of a compass needle is attracted to the magnetic pole of the earth.?
The needle on a compass points to the North Magnetic Pole. CommentA compass points to Magnetic North, not to the north magnetic pole. They are two different things -the first is location, the second is magnetic polarity.
How would you describe Latin Americas location?

OMG did you get that from a 6th grade S.S. textbook?
What does magnetic north mean?
'Magnetic North' is the name given to a location in the Arctic, to differentiate it from 'True North'. Whereas True North is fixed and located at the Earth's axis of rotation, the 'Magnetic North' varies from year to year. The term, 'Magnetic North', does not describe the magnetic polarity at that location which, actually, is a south pole.

Planet Earth
What is the nickname of Panama?
Panama's nickname is "The Crossroads of the Americas".
Is Brazil north of Antarctica?
Yes, every location on earth is north of Antarctica.
Is true north a fixed location or does it change?
True north is a fixed location on the Earth's surface and is the direction along the Earth's surface towards the geographic North Pole. It does not change its position, unlike magnetic north which can fluctuate due to changes in the Earth's magnetic field.
What is the location of the Polaris?
It is approximately above the Earth's North Pole.
What does the hemisphere mean?
Hemisphere means half of a sphere or globe. It is used to describe half of a celestial object or planet. Earth is divided into a north and south hemisphere by the equator, and lines of longitude bisect Earth from north to south separating the west hemisphere (containing the Americas) from the east hemisphere (containing Africa, Asia, Australia, and Europe).
What direction is aurstralia from Antarctica?
Every location on earth is north of Antarctica.
