The equator is an imaginary line around the earth, or the center of our global circular plannet. If you were to cross the equator, nothing would happen just the closer you get to it the hotter. Were ever you are the further away from the imaginary line will get colder it's a fact that most hurricanes and hot places usually end up near the equator. Crossing the equator would do nothing but go on with your day, you will never know you crossed it cause you can't see it.
What else can I help you with?
Do you get more sunlight if you move closer to the equator or farther?
You get more sunlight if you move closer to the equator. This is because the equator receives more direct sunlight throughout the year compared to areas farther away from the equator.
When you move away from the equator where do meridians go?
Meridians converge at the poles and intersect the equator at 90 degrees. They are all great circle lines called lines of longitude. The equator is a line of latitude and the only line of latitude that is a great circle line. As you move away from the equator the lines of latitude describe smaller and smaller circles round the planet as you approach the poles.
Why is there so little precipitation at high latitudes?
as you move away from the tropics it means you are moving closer to the equator and since at the equator is warm there will be little precipitation
What is the temperature if it is far from the equator?
The temperature typically decreases as you move farther away from the equator. This is because areas closer to the poles receive less direct sunlight, leading to cooler temperatures.
Does the Gulf Stream move water away from the equator and the Benguela current move some of this same water back towards the equator?
Yes, the Gulf Stream transports warm water from the tropics toward the North Atlantic, away from the equator. The Benguela Current located off the southwest coast of Africa transports some of this water back towards the equator, creating a cyclical flow pattern in the ocean.
What does the ocean move away from the equator?
..,.
If you wanted to enjoy longer periods of daylight in the summertime would you move closer to the equator or farther away from it?
You would move farther away from the equator because of the tilt of Earth's axis.
What happens to the length of day as you move north of equator?
They become shorter.
What happens to the length of day as you move north of the equator?
They become shorter.
Do you get more sunlight if you move closer to the equator or farther?
You get more sunlight if you move closer to the equator. This is because the equator receives more direct sunlight throughout the year compared to areas farther away from the equator.
The surface ocean currents move heat energy away from where?
the equator
What happens in metaphase 1?
pairs of homologous chromosomes move to the equator of the cell
What happens to your weight if you move from the equator of the earth and start moving towards the equator?
In that case, your weight remains absolutely constant and does not budge one iota.
When you move away from the equator where do meridians go?
Meridians converge at the poles and intersect the equator at 90 degrees. They are all great circle lines called lines of longitude. The equator is a line of latitude and the only line of latitude that is a great circle line. As you move away from the equator the lines of latitude describe smaller and smaller circles round the planet as you approach the poles.
Do meridians get parallel to one another as they get closer to the poles?
no. They are parallel to each other only at the equator. But as soon as you move away from the equator, they are no longer parallel.
Why is there so little precipitation at high latitudes?
as you move away from the tropics it means you are moving closer to the equator and since at the equator is warm there will be little precipitation
The further from the Equator the warmer?
This statement is incorrect. Generally, areas closer to the Equator receive more direct sunlight and therefore tend to be warmer. As you move further away from the Equator towards the poles, temperatures typically decrease.
