The distance from the North Pole to the Equator is approximately 10,000 kilometers. This distance is calculated along the meridian line, which is the line of longitude that passes through both the North Pole and the Equator. The meridian line is one-quarter of the Earth's circumference, which is approximately 40,075 kilometers. Therefore, the distance from the North Pole to the Equator is one-quarter of this total circumference.

What are example of 3 reference points that are stationary relative to Earth?
North Pole, South Pole, and the zero-zero point (where the equator passes through the Greenwhich Meridian.)
How many miles is it from the North Pole to the South Pole?
The distance between the North Pole and the South Pole "as the crow flies" is around 20,014 kilometres, or 12,416 miles. If it was possible to travel directly through the earth, it would be 12,800km or 7900 miles. N.B. The exact point of intersection of the Earth's axis and the Earth's surface at any given moment, is called the "instantaneous pole," but because of the "wobble" this cannot be used as a definition of a fixed North Pole (or South Pole) where distance and precision is required. Incidentally, when the revolutionary French were reworking their system of weights and measures on a scientific or rational basis, the distance from the North pole to the equator on the meridian through Paris was adopted as the basis for the measure of length called the meter, in that they selected ten million meters, (or ten thousand kilometers which means the same thing) for this distance. Later surveys showed this length to be slightly in error, but it is an easy way to remember the Earth's circumference, for example: 4 times 10000 km. = 40 thousand km.
What is the end of a magnet called?
A pole. They are called the north pole and south pole. The north pole of a magnet is defined as the pole that, when the magnet is freely suspended, points towards the Earth's North Magnetic Pole in the Arctic.
What is the difference between the sun's rays that strike at the equator and the sun's rays that strike at the poles?
Close to perpendicular.
Where is it possible for a person to walk one kilometer south one kilometer east and one kilometer north and end up in the exact same place?
Either the north or south pole. It would have to be the north pole. You can't walk south from the south pole. Using cardinal directions as a guide you can walk south from the south pole. Using general directions it could only be the north pole.
What is the distance from the north pole to the equator?
10,000 kilometers
Is the distance around the equaor the same as the distance from the north pole to the south pole?
No, the distance around the equator is greater than the distance from the North Pole to the South Pole. The circumference of the Earth at the equator is roughly 40,075 kilometers, while the distance from the North Pole to the South Pole (along the meridian) is about 20,009 kilometers.
How many degrees the south of the equator is the south pole?
The south pole is 90 degrees south of the equator. The north pole is 90 degrees north of the equator.
Is the north pole closer to the equator?
the north pole is the same distance to the equator as th south pole.
How many Degrees is from the North Pole to the Equator?
90
How many degrees is it from the equator to the north pole or south pole?
90 degrees
5. In what direction is the equator from the South Pole?
The equator is North, as is everything else on earth when you are at the South Pole. From the south Pole, every direction is north.The North pole is the northernmost point on Earth. The South Pole is the southernmost point on Earth. The Equator is a line running circumferentially around the Earth and is midway between the poles. The Equator is south of the North Pole and north of the South Pole.All lines of latitude -- including the Equator -- are north of the South Pole.
Is Antarctica to the south of the equator?
Yes. The arctic is at the north pole. The antarctic is at the south pole. The south pole is below the equator. The north pole is above the equator.
How many kilometres is it to travel through the planet?
The diameter of the Earth from North Pole to South Pole is about 12713.6 kilometers. The distance through the Earth from opposite longitudes at the equator is farther due to the rotational "bulge", about 12776.2 kilometers.
Is the equator north of the Argentina or South Pole?
The Equator is north of both the South Pole and Argentina.
What are the due north of the Equator?
The North Pole is due north of the Equator.
Which is The place that is far away from the equator?
The North Pole and the South Pole are far away from the equator.
