the Southern Hemisphere.
All places to the north of the Equator are in the Northern Hemisphere.
The equator divides the Earth North to South.
The equator stays right where it is ... all the way around the Earth, exactly midway between the north and south poles.
Latitude is the angle measured from the equator north or south to the location of interest. A line formed by all the points on Earth that have the same latitude forms a circle around the Earth parallel to the equator. Longitude is the angle from the Prime Meridian measured east or west to the location vof interest. A line formed by all the points on Earth that have the same longitude forms a semi-circle between the north and south poles.
No. These are called lines of longitude or meridians, one of which is the Prime Meridian running through Grenwich, England (and other places, of course), considered to be 0º longitude, thereby marking the beginning point for all other lines of longitude.The equator, on the other hand, is an imaginary line circumnavigating (running around) the globe at a point halfway between the two poles - in other words, it is crossed by the meridians at right angles.The equator, therefore is a line of latitude from which the degrees north and south of all other lines of latitude are measured. The equator is 0º latitude.
All places south of the equator are in the southern hemisphere.
All places to the north of the Equator are in the Northern Hemisphere.
All place on earth north of the equator are in the Northern Hemisphere.
They are in the Southern Hemisphere.
Yes because the places near or on the equator is near the center of the Earth.

The equator is the collection of points that are exactly equal distance from the north and south poles. It goes all the way around the Earth, through every possible east and west longitude. So there are no such places as "east or west of the equator". Thailand is north of the equator, though not by much.
The equator divides the Earth North to South.
I'm not sure what you mean by a "north and south line". On the Earth's surface: -- The equator is the circle of zero reference for latitude, from which the north and south latitude of all places are measured. -- The Prime Meridian is the semi-circle of zero reference for longitude, from which the east and west longitudes of all places are measured.
No, only from the half of the Earth's surface that's north of the equator ... known as the "northern hemisphere".
