What is the name of the winds between the poles and the equator?
The winds between the poles and the equator are called the westerlies in the mid-latitudes and the trade winds closer to the equator. These wind patterns are created by the Earth's rotation and the distribution of heat across the planet.
What part of the surface of the sun moves the fastest?
The Sun rotates faster at the equator. Not only in km/hour, but also in angular speed. From Wikipedia: "The period of this actual rotation is approximately 25.6 days at the equator and 33.5 days at the poles." Note that the Sun is not a rigid body like the Earth. The differential rotation is believed to be caused by a combination of convection currents and Coriolis effects.
How does the equator line run?
The equator is an imaginary line that runs horizontally around the Earth, dividing it into the Northern Hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere. It is located at 0 degrees latitude and circles the Earth's surface equidistant from the North and South Poles.
What body of water bisects both the equator and the international dateline?
Both the equator and the International date line cross through the Pacific Ocean. In fact, the point where these two lines meet is in this body of water.
Sun's period of rotation?
If by "the sun's revolution" you mean it's rotational period (how long it takes the sun to spin around once), you can safely assume about 25 days. (25.38 to be exact) This is a difficult thing to measure as the sun is completely gas and different sections (from the equator to its poles) rotate at different velocities. However, if you mean how long it takes the sun to rotate around the center of the GALAXY, this is measured to be 2.25 to 2.5 x 108 (250 MILLION YEARS!) The velocity at which the Sun travels around the center of the galaxy has been calculated to be 220,000 meters PER SECOND. So combining these two things we estimate that the Sun journeys over 6 BILLION miles for just one rotation! These are big numbers to think about, but it makes you realize how HUGE our galaxy and space is... and there are billions of more galaxies out there!
Where does a body have least weight in earth?
A body will have the least weight at the Earth's poles due to the effect of centrifugal force and the Earth's oblate spheroid shape. This is because the radius at the poles is slightly larger than at the equator, resulting in slightly weaker gravity.
What is the name of the winds between the poles and the equator?
The winds between the poles and the equator are called the westerlies in the mid-latitudes and the trade winds closer to the equator. These wind patterns are created by the Earth's rotation and the distribution of heat across the planet.
Is weight of body maximum at poles?
No, the weight of a body remains the same regardless of its location on Earth. Weight is determined by the mass of the object and the strength of gravity, which is relatively constant across the Earth's surface.
Why weight of body is more at the poles need scientific reason?
The weight of an object is determined by the gravitational force acting on it, which is slightly stronger at the poles due to the Earth's oblate shape. The equatorial bulge caused by the Earth's rotation pushes mass towards the poles, resulting in a slightly greater gravitational pull and therefore a slightly higher weight at the poles.
Where does a body have least weight equator or earth centre?
In the middle of the earth is where an object has the lightest weight. The weight is zero. The reason is that the mass of the object is pulled equally in all directions so all the forces cancel out.
Why to name it equator?
The dictionary defines equator as: a great circle of the earth or a celestial body that is everywhere equally distant from the two poles and divides the surface into the northern and southern hemispheres Equator come from Middle English, from Medieval Latin aequator, literally, equalizer, from Latin aequare So it is called the equator because it is a line that divides the earth into two.
How would the weight of the body vary as it is taken from the earth to the moon?
1/6 that of the earth

What is rotational flattening?
Rotational flattening refers to the phenomenon where a celestial body, such as a planet or moon, becomes slightly flattened at the poles and bulges at the equator due to its rotation. This effect occurs because the centrifugal force generated by the body's rotation counteracts gravitational forces, causing it to assume an oblate spheroid shape rather than a perfect sphere. The degree of flattening is influenced by the body's rotation speed, density, and structural composition. For example, Earth is not a perfect sphere but is slightly flattened at the poles and bulging at the equator due to this effect.
How much rice should i eat in a day?
At least 2e^35 of their body weight, inversely proportional to their distance from the equator
What force is acting on the weight?
Weight is , actually, the force experienced by a body on the earth's surface due to earth's gravity. It is expressed as the same way as force Force = mass*acceleration where as weight = mass*acceleration due to gravity Since mass of a body is constant and gravity is almost constant(9.8 m/s2 ) except at the poles where it is (10 m/s2 ) , a body has the same weight, wherever it is on earth.
Can a pole vaulter use a longer pole?
It depends on your weight pole vaulting poles can be measured by weight and height. the highest weight pole ive seen is a 180 but it also depends on your upper body strength the tougher you are the bigger the pole you can use
