What creates the air pressure difference between the equator and the poles?
The winds from the north pole and the south pole along with the heat from the south and the cold from the north.
After high pressure areas are created around the poles cold polar air flows toward?
The low pressure area at the Equator.
What cause the global convection currents between the equator and the poles?
Earth's tilt
Is the atmosphere thinner at the poles than at the equator?
yes the ozone layer is thinner at the poles then the equator
Is the climate coldest near the poles or the equator?
It is the coldest near the poles and hottest near the equator.
What causes two distinct pressure zones between equator and the poles?
The Earth's rotation turns the polar high pressure systems westward as they move from the poles (westerlies), and the subtropical high pressure systems eastward as they move toward the equator (tropical easterlies).
Where is equator?
The equator is on the 0 degree latitude that is between the north and south poles. So obviously it is between the poles.
What is halfway between two poles?
the Equator
Is there any difference between the value of g at the equator and the poles?
it is greater at poles than equator
What causes two distinct pressure zone between the equator andthe poles?
The equators warm air, and the polar cold air.
The distance between the longitudes decreases towards?
The north and south poles or away from the equator. At the poles the distances between lines of longitude are zero.
The difference in temperature between the equator and poles?
It is more COLDER in the POLES and it is more WARMER by the EQUATOR.So therefore the temperature by the equator is warmer and the temperature by the poles is much colder.
What creates the air pressure between the equator and poles?
The winds from the north pole and the south pole along with the heat from the south and the cold from the north.
What where the difference between the longitudes from the equator to the poles?
everything
What does the Equator mean?
The Equator is the imaginary line around the Earth, halfway between the poles.
Does mercury have an equator?
-- If a planet spins, then it has a spin axis. -- If it has a spin axis, then it has poles. -- An equator is just the line made up of all the points that are midway between the poles. So if the planet has poles, then it has an equator. -- Mercury spins.
What creates the air pressure difference between the equator and the poles?
The winds from the north pole and the south pole along with the heat from the south and the cold from the north.
