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.
What else can I help you with?
Why do latitude lines run north and south of the equator?
They don't. They "run" east/west. If you marked a dot on the wall of your bedroom at every point that's 5-ft above the floor, you'd wind up with a horizontal line running left and right all the way around the room, 5-ft above the floor. It's a horizontal line that marks a constant vertical position called "height". If you mark a dot on the Earth at every point that's 34.72 degrees north of the equator, you'll wind up with a line that runs east-west all the way around the globe, 34.72 degrees north of the equator. It's an east-west line that marks a constant north-south position called "latitude".
How far is the Philippines from the north pole in degrees?
The Philippines lies between about 10 and 15 degrees north of the Equator.
How are parallels of latitude numbered?
Parallels of latitude are numbered by degrees north or south of the equator. The equator is zero degrees, while the north pole is at 90N and the south pole at 90S. Depending on the scale of your map or the size of your globe, the printed lines of latitude may be every degree, every 5 degrees or every 15 degrees.
Why are there 5 north poles and 4 south?
There is only one true geographic North Pole and one South Pole. In magnetic terms, Earth has one magnetic North Pole and one magnetic South Pole. The confusion may arise from different uses of the terms in different contexts, such as in physics, geography, and navigation.
Is the Philippines close to the equator?
Yes, Malaysia is near the equator. Actually, the equator passes through the south of the Malay peninsula.Malaysia is at the equator, it just 5 degree on the north side of the equator. East Malaysia is basically half of Borneo, Borneo is split on the middle by the equator with the Malaysia site on the Northern Hemisphere and the Indonesian site on the Southern Hemisphere.
Are the Solomon islands close to the south pole?
Nowhere near. The Solomon Islands range from around 5 degrees south to 10 degrees south of the equator.
5 years ago was the North pole colder than the south pole?
no

How many continents lie partically or completely south of the equator?

What is the population South Pole?
5 penguins and 2 walrus

Where in the world can you hike 5 miles north 5 miles east and then 5 miles south?
You can hike 5 miles north, 5 miles east, and then 5 miles south and end up at your starting point at the North Pole. This is because moving north from the North Pole takes you directly away from it, then moving east makes a circular path around the pole, and finally moving south returns you back to the starting point. Additionally, there are locations near the South Pole in certain configurations where this is also possible, specifically near the latitude where walking 5 miles east would complete a full circle around the pole.
How do you convert a distance of 14 degrees 54 minutes and 36 seconds into meters?
The short answer: about 1664850 meters. [14*60+54+36/60] = 894.6 minutes of arc * 1861= 1664850 m I assume you are measuring angular distance on the surface of the Earth. Now that will depend on the direction and the latitude that you are measuring If you are measuring directly North -South then it doesn't matter and the answer would be almost identical to if you were measuring along the equator (East- West). But if you are measuring anywhere else or in any other direction then it depends from where and in what direction. (Think that the full circle of 360 degrees in an East West direction is only a little over 30 meters if you start 5 meters from the North OR South Pole yet 40 000 000 meters at the equator.
You are standing on a point on earth called point A you walk north 10km east 10km south 10km now you are at point A again you are not at the south pole where are you?
You are approximately 5 kilometers away from the south pole?
What is the degrees in the northern hemisphere?
The Northern Hemisphere ranges from 0 degrees at the equator to 90 degrees at the North Pole.
