What else can I help you with?
35degrees south or 20degrees north closer to the equator?
Both latitudes are measured from the equator, which is the 'zero' line. 20 is closer to it than 35 is.
Why do equator regions more consistent climate than regions at middle latitudes?
There is only a tropical climate as opposed to a temperate, moderate, highland, or continental climate in the middle latitudes.
Why latitudes are not greater than 90 degree north and 90 degree south?
Latitudes are defined as the angular distance between a point on the Earth's surface and the equator. The equator is at 0° latitude, and latitudes are measured up to 90° north and 90° south because beyond these points lies the geographical poles, where latitudes become undefined as lines of longitude converge.
Why do regions of the world near the equator have more consistent climate than regions at middle latitudes?
They get about the same amount of radiant energy year-round
Is Maryland closer to the north pole or the equator?
the north pole and the equater is south of maryland
Why are waters at the equator warmer than waters at higher latitudes?
Because the waters are heated throughout the whole year and not just in the summer as at higher latitudes.

Can you demonstrate the challenge of balancing an egg on the equator?
Balancing an egg on the equator is challenging due to the Earth's rotation. The equator moves at a faster speed than other latitudes, making it difficult to keep the egg upright. The centrifugal force at the equator can cause the egg to fall over easily.
Does the sun rotate faster than the equator?
Yes, the sun rotates faster at its equator than at higher latitudes. This is known as differential rotation, where different parts of the sun rotate at different speeds. It takes about 25 days for the sun to complete one rotation near its equator, while it takes longer at higher latitudes.
Why do equator regions more consistent climate than regions at middle latitudes?
There is only a tropical climate as opposed to a temperate, moderate, highland, or continental climate in the middle latitudes.
Which is further from the Equator, Greenland or Australia?
Greenland is much further from the Equator than Australia.
Do seasons occur at all the latitudes?
The closer you get to the equator, the less seasonal variation you see, since the equator gets slightly more than twelve hours of sunlight every day of the year.
How is temperature and latitude related?
Temperature and latitude are inversely related - generally, as you move closer to the equator (lower latitudes), temperatures tend to be higher, while as you move towards the poles (higher latitudes), temperatures tend to be lower. This relationship is due to the angle at which sunlight hits the Earth's surface, with more direct sunlight at lower latitudes leading to higher temperatures.
Why latitudes are not greater than 90 degree north and 90 degree south?
Latitudes are defined as the angular distance between a point on the Earth's surface and the equator. The equator is at 0° latitude, and latitudes are measured up to 90° north and 90° south because beyond these points lies the geographical poles, where latitudes become undefined as lines of longitude converge.
Why is the climate near the equator warmer than the other places?
The climate near the equator is warmer than most other places because the sun is closest to the equator.
Why is the climate near the equator warmer than other places?
The climate near the equator is warmer than most other places because the sun is closest to the equator.
