When was Following the Equator created?

Following the Equator was created in 1897.


What term is used to find to measure the distance from the equator?

The term used to measure the distance from the equator is "latitude." Latitude is expressed in degrees, with the equator defined as 0 degrees. Locations north of the equator have positive latitude values (up to 90 degrees North), while locations south of the equator have negative latitude values (down to 90 degrees South).


How would the stars' motions differ at the equator of the earth?

At the equator of the Earth, stars appear to rise directly in the east and set directly in the west, following a straight path across the sky. This motion is more pronounced due to the Earth's rotation being perpendicular to the celestial equator. As a result, stars at the equator also rise and set more quickly compared to locations at higher latitudes, where they travel in a more diagonal path across the sky. Additionally, observers at the equator can see a wider variety of stars throughout the year, including both northern and southern celestial hemispheres.


How does a locations latitude determine how warm or cold it is?

The latitude can be thought of as the distance from the equator. 0 degrees latitude is the equator, which is typically warmer than locations closer than the poles. As you move away from the Equator and towards the North or South poles, the weather tends to be colder. In contrast, the region between the poles and the equator often has a greater temperature range variation.


Does the earth sit in the middle of the equator?

The Earth has an equator. The equator goes around the middle of the Earth. The equator is the circular line that goes around the Earth that is half way between the North and South poles. The equator is defined by the Earth's rotation and for that matter so are the locations of the North and South poles. Even without the Sun as a guide, we would know there was an axis of rotation and so we would be able to define the mid-plane perpendicular to that axis half way between the two ends.

Are all places along the equator in northern Argentina or southern Spain?

No, quite the opposite. There is no part of Spain or Argentina that sits on the equator. All locations on the equator are in other countries.


What determines the north and south hemispheres?

The equator is the line that divides the Earth into the northern and southern hemispheres. Locations above the equator are in the northern hemisphere, while locations below it are in the southern hemisphere.


Are locations near the equator warm in summer and cold in winter?

Locations near the equator typically have consistently warm temperatures throughout the year due to their proximity to the sun. This means that there isn't a significant difference in temperatures between summer and winter at equatorial regions.


Does The equator divides the Northern Hemisphere from the Southern Hemisphere?

Yes, the equator serves as the dividing line between the Northern Hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere. Locations north of the equator are in the Northern Hemisphere, while locations south of the equator are in the Southern Hemisphere.

What direction would you steer your boat to travel from the equator to the galapagos island?

That would depend on exactly where on the the equator you are. If you are on the equator by Brazil then you would have to steer south. If you are on the equator nea PNG the you have to steer east.
