Each meridian is a half-circle from the north pole to the south pole of the earth.
The imaginary line that follows the curve of the Earth and is the shortest route for pilots is called a great circle route. This route is the most efficient way to travel between two points on the Earth's surface, as it represents the shortest path over the Earth's surface, given its spherical shape. Pilots often use great circle routes to save time and fuel during long-distance flights.
The name given to Earth, in scientific terms, is "planet" or "the third planet from the Sun". In terms of mythology and folklore, Earth is sometimes referred to as "Mother Earth" or "Gaia".
The average Earth's cloud cover is around 60%. This means that on average, 60% of the Earth is covered by clouds at any given time. Cloud cover can vary depending on location, season, and weather conditions.
The horizon is the name given to where the earth and sky appear to meet. It is the apparent line that separates the sky from the land or water when viewed from a specific point.
The state of the atmosphere near Earth at a given time and place is called weather. It includes factors such as temperature, humidity, wind speed, and precipitation.
The Equator is the line that separates the earth into two hemispheres
The circumference of a circle is the distance around it.
Circumference.
Circumference.
At a given distance from the Sun, only at a very specific spead will it go in an exact circle. And that perfect circle will soon be disturbed by gravitation from other planets, comets, etc.
Circumference
the radius is half of the diameter
The distance around an object is called its perimeter. ------------------------------------------------- Or if it is a circle its circumference.
We've not been given a circle.
That's a "circle". The given distance is the circle's radius, and the given point is the circle's center.
A circle of constant longitude passing through a given place on the earth's surface and the terrestrial poles.
