Lines of longitude called what?
Meridians of longitude; parallels of latitude. Remember that meridians are all the same length (20,000 km) and that they meet at the poles. Parallels are, well, parallel, and are different lengths, the longest being the Equator.
How many meridians can be drawn on the globe at 5 degree interval?
72 number of meridians can be drawn on the globe at 5 degree interval
Do all of the parallels and meridians cross each other at right angles on both the globe and the Mercator?
On a globe, parallels and meridians meet at right angles only at the equator and the poles. On a Mercator projection map, all meridians intersect the equator at right angles, while parallels intersect meridians at right angles throughout the map.
How many meridians can be drawn on a globe at an interval of 10 degrees?
A globe can have 36 meridians drawn at 10-degree intervals. This is because meridians are lines of longitude that extend from the North Pole to the South Pole, and they are measured from 0 degrees (the Prime Meridian) to 360 degrees. Dividing the 360 degrees by 10 degrees gives 36 meridians.
Does the Prime Meridian design shorter than other meridians?
No, the Prime Meridian is not shorter than other meridians; all meridians are of equal length. Each meridian, including the Prime Meridian, runs from the North Pole to the South Pole, making them all approximately 20,000 kilometers long. The Prime Meridian is simply the reference line for 0 degrees longitude, while other meridians are measured in degrees east or west of it.
Where do all meridians meed?
All meridians of longitude converge (meet) at the north and south poles.
Which direction do Yin meridians flow?
Of the twelve regular meridians, the yin meridians always flow up the body, and all the yang meridians always flow down.
What is the center point from which all meridians begin?
