A vertical plane is any plane where the normal (a line at 90 degrees to the plane) is horizontal. All your walls are vertical planes.
The normal to the plane of the Earth's orbit is often used to define "up" and "down" for planet Earth.
The Earth's axis is tilted at about 23.5 degrees away from this "vertical" line.
Also you could define "vertical" as simply the direction shown by a plumb line.
That's the definition which has walls as vertical planes.
With either definition there will be more than one plane that is a vertical plane.

What is the difference of a dip slip fault or a strike slip fault?
In a dip-slip fault, the movement is primarily vertical along the fault plane, either up (reverse fault) or down (normal fault). In a strike-slip fault, the movement is primarily horizontal along the fault plane, with minimal vertical movement. Both types of faults are caused by tectonic stresses in the Earth's crust.
What is magnetic meridian?
The magnetic meridian is an imaginary line that represents the direction of the Earth's magnetic field at a particular location on the Earth's surface. It is defined as the vertical plane passing through a magnetic needle or compass that is free to align itself with the Earth's magnetic field.
What is earths equatorial plane?
Earth's equatorial plane is an imaginary plane that divides the Earth into two equal halves, creating the equator. It is perpendicular to the Earth's axis of rotation, which means it is horizontal in relation to the planet's poles.
True or false Motion parallel to earths surface is vertical motion Motion parallel to earths surface is vertical motion?
False. Consider a car moving on the road, along the earth's surface. That is considered to be Vx or Horizontal motion or velocity. If the car were to move perpendicular to the earth's surface that would be Vy or Vertical motion and velocity.
Can you see the curvature of the Earth from a plane?
Yes, you can see the curvature of the Earth from a plane when flying at a high altitude, typically above 35,000 feet.
What is the relationship of the earth's movement to the the sun?
The Earth rotates about on a fixed plane that is respect to its vertical axis around the sun.
What is the relationship of the earth's movement to the sun?
The Earth rotates about on a fixed plane that is respect to its vertical axis around the sun.
Is the earth's axis perfectly vertical?
First of all, as long as we're in our comfortable familiar environment, "vertical" means toward or away from the center of the earth. When you start talking about things in space, the word "vertical" has no meaning. You might expect the earth's axis of rotation to be perpendicular to the plane of the earth's orbit around the sun. If that's what you expect, then you'll be disappointed. The axis of rotation makes an angle of about 66.5 degrees with the orbital plane.
What is the vertical end of an inclined plane called?
The vertical end of an inclined plane is called the base.
What is the difference between coronal plane and sagittal plane?
sagittal plane is a vertical plane that divides sth to left and right parts coronal plane is a vertical plane that divides sth into anterior and posterior parts
Which plant has Axis of rotation is tilted at an angle of 90 degrees from the vertical?
Vertical???? You might be thinking of Uranus which has an axial tilt of 97.7° to the orbital plane (the Earth's axial tilt is 23.44°)
What is a plane that contains the vertical line of symmetry?
paper plane
What is the degree that the earth is tilted?
I think the question should be "what is the angle..." The tilt of Earth's axis is about 23.5°. This is the angle between Earth's axis and a line that is vertical to the Ecliptic (the plane in which Earth orbits the Sun).
What does vertical mean in math?
The vertical axis in a plane coordinate graph
What does vertical means in math?
The vertical axis in a plane coordinate graph
What are Horizontal plane and vertical plane?
naku theliadhu mekemina thelusa
What is a profile plane in engineering graphics?
the plane which is perpendicular to both horizontal plane and vertical plane is called as "PROFILE PLANE"
