Yes. If you spend too much time too close to it, you begin to sweat profusely.
== == Coriolis Effect Hope it helps.. :)
Cyclones don't form at the equator. The Coriolis effect is a key element in the formation of cyclones. Its influence is negligible at the equator.
No effect at all. However the plane of the equator will be tilted to the same amount as the Earth as compared to the plane in which the Earth orbits the Sun. This plane is called "the ecliptic".
The geostrophic wind balance is not possible because the Coriolis force vanishes at the Equator.
Yes. A hurricane is just an intense tropical cyclone. Tropical cyclones occur in both hemispheres. Only storms in certain parts of the northern hemisphere are called hurricanes, though they are essentially identical to storms that occur elsewhere.

Coriolis effect
They do not. The sun would radiate, as ever, whether or not the equator or even the earth ceased to exist. So the equator has no effect at all.
1. The equator receives more of the Sun's energy. b. air near the equator is warmer.

The rotation of a large-scale weather system depends on the Coriolis effect, in which moving air is deflected relative to earth's surface. This effect is strongest near the poles and diminishes to zero at the equator. Since this effect is weak at the lowest latitudes, tropical storms generally cannot organize within 5 degrees of the equator.
