Where is Largest belt of active earthquakes and volcanoes?
The Ring of Fire is the largest belt of active earthquakes and volcanoes. It stretches along the edges of the Pacific Ocean and is known for its frequent seismic and volcanic activity due to the movement of tectonic plates in the region. Countries such as Japan, Indonesia, and Chile are part of the Ring of Fire.
What is wind that wind blows most frequently across a wind belt?
The wind that blows most frequently across a wind belt is known as prevailing wind. Prevailing winds are the dominant patterns of wind direction in a particular location or region, driven by global atmospheric circulation patterns and the Earth's rotation.
What was the record rainfall in one hour for the region?
The record rainfall in one hour for the region was 12 inches.
What region of the earth near the equator?
the Equatorial region or zone, it is part of the tropics which is the region between the tropic of capricorn in the south and the tropic of cancer in the north. The Equatorial zone is the region between 5 degrees north and 5 degrees south. There is generally 6 zones north to south on the Earth. 1. The arctic bound by the arctic circle, this is the line where, when the north pole is at it's furthest inclination from the sun (winter solstice), the sun does not shine north of here. 2. The northern temperate zone, from the arctic to the tropic. 3. The tropics described above, are the areas on the Earth that at one or two times during the year will directly face the sun. 4. The Equatorial zone described above. 5. The southern temperate zone. 6. And the Antarctic zone, dark during the summer solstice.
Why do you have overhead sun only at some places in India?
The sun reaches zenith, exactly overhead, only for locations on or between the tropics of Cancer and Capricorn. If you are right on one of the tropics, the sun will be at zenith once a year. If you are between the tropics, it will happen twice a year. Any locations in India north of the Tropic of Cancer will not see the sun reach zenith.
Is Jupiter one of the inner or outer of the asteroid belt?
Jupiter orbits the sun outside the asteroid belt.
Is Eris in the kuiper belt?
Yes, Eris is in the Kuiper Belt, a region of our solar system beyond Neptune that is home to many icy bodies and dwarf planets. Eris is one of the largest known dwarf planets in the Kuiper Belt and was discovered in 2005.
What is the revolution of the asteroid belt around the sun?
The revolution of asteroids in the asteroid belt is typically between 2 to 6 years, depending on the specific asteroid's distance from the Sun and its orbital speed. The average distance of the asteroid belt from the Sun is about 2.2 to 3.3 astronomical units (AU), with one AU being the average distance between the Earth and the Sun.
Is the comet belt in between mars and Jupiter?
No. The asteroid belt is an area between Mars and Jupiter where most of the solar system's asteroids orbit. The Kupier belt is much farther out. It is a region that contains a large number of comets orbiting beyond Neptune.
Where is Pluto located in relation to other objects in space?
Pluto is located in the Kuiper Belt, a region of the outer solar system beyond Neptune. It is considered a dwarf planet and is one of the largest objects in this region. Pluto's orbit is highly elliptical, and it occasionally comes closer to the sun than Neptune.
What are any of thousands of celestial bodies with diameters between one and five hundred miles that revolve around the Sun in orbits located mostly between those of Jupiter and Mars?
Those are "asteroids". The region is collectively known as the Main Asteroid Belt. However, the Asteroid Belt is in no sense the way movies portray it. You would not be dodging thousands of asteroids, all moving in a variety of directions. You could throw a moon through the asteroid belt with little danger.
How long does it take for the asteroid belt to make a complete orbit around the sun?
This is not a scientific answer (corrections welcome) but based on the location of the Asteroid belt, the length of the Martian year and the length of the Jovian year, I would surmise that it takes the asteroid belt about 7earth years to orbit the sun. But don't quote me!
What planets form a belt between Mars and Jupiter?
No planets form a belt between Mars and Jupiter. The asteroids form the Asteroid Belt in that region, and one of those is now considered to be a dwarf planet, Ceres.
How far is the Kuiper belt from the sun?
The Kuiper belt is a region of the Solar System beyond the planets, extending from the orbit of Neptune (at 30 AU) to approximately 55 AU from the Sun.Minimum from Sun = 30 Au ~ 4.5 billion KM - ~2.7 billion milesMaximum from Sun = 55 Au ~ 8.2 billion kilometers- ~ 5.1 billion milesBelow you will find links for more information.
Where is haumea located in the solar system?
Haumea is one of the newly-discovered Kuiper Belt Objects out beyond the orbit of Neptune. It has a perihelion distance of about 35 AU.
Is Neptune located inside or outside the asteroid belt?
Neptune is located beyond the asteroid belt as are all the gas giants. In fact, as of Pluto's demotion, Neptune is the farthest planet from the sun.
What other natural satellite orbits the sun apart from the earth?
The other "natural satellites" orbiting the Sun fall into different categories. The other principal planets are Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. The main asteroid belt is populated by rocky planetesimals with one qualified dwarf planet, Ceres. The more distant Kuiper belt is outside the limits of Uranus, and includes innumerable chunks of frozen volatiles (ices). Pluto, Haumea and Makemake are dwarf planets in this region. The Scattered Disc partially overlaps the Kuiper Belt and extends further out. Eris, slightly larger than Pluto, and Sedna share this region with many more fragments of ice and dust. Finally, there is a region of dust and ice fragments in deeper space surrounding the Sun, thought to be outside the limits of the heliosphere and solar winds, called the Oort cloud; but, I don't think any qualified satellites exist here.
