Wisconsin is a big place.

The Bayfield County Sheriff's office in Washburn, Wisconsin, is 3,226 miles (5,192 km)

due north of the equator.

From the intersection of State St. and Broad St., between City Hall and the Post Office,

in Beloit, it's only 2,937 miles (4,727 km).

Meridians are imaginary semi-circles that connect the north and south poles.

Parallels are imaginary full circles around the Earth, and every point on a parallel

is the same distance from a pole.

The equator is the longest parallel. Every point on it is equal distances from

both the north and south poles. The latitude of the equator is zero, and all

other latitudes are measured from it.

A meridian is an imaginary line that runs from the North Pole to the South Pole on the Earth's surface. It is used in navigation and to indicate longitude. The prime meridian, at 0 degrees longitude, passes through Greenwich, England.

It was designed to be 1,000,000 meters (10,000 km) when the meter was defined.

The more precise figure is 1,001,965 meters.

You can also approximate it by

The N pole is 90° latitude

1° latitude = 60 minutes = 60 nautical miles

1 nautical mile = 1852 meters

90 x 60 x 1852 = 1,000,800 meters

Quito, the capital of Ecuador, is centered 15 miles south of the equator, and it extends to within just 1 mile of it. Because Lhasa is no longer the capital of Tibet, Quito is also the highest official capital in the word, at 9350 feet or 2800 meters.

1. yes

The Equator does not cross the Arctic ocean.

Snow is indeed found near the equator in Africa. Snow can be found on Mount Kilimanjaro in the nation of Tanzania near the equator.

It is a parallel latitude Line it is the line that sepetates north and south

It takes the Earth exactly 365 days to fully rotate the sun. Witch is the same amount as a whole year.

The state of Hawaii is entirely north of the equator, and the main islands are just south of the Tropic of Cancer (23.5° N latitude). Hawaii extends to the northeast where small, mostly uninhabited islands are north of the tropic.

The Republic of Uganda is the country found in the Eastern Lake region of Africa, south of the Equator. Uganda is bordered by Kenya to the east, Sudan to the north, and Congo in the west.

the northern hemisphere is north, the southern hemisphere is south of the equator

Simple! The earth is like a huge magnet?? Electrons are always in mouvement and that create a magnetic field!!!! Same thing happend in a magnet! By stimulating the core with electricity,you put electrons in perpetual mouvement and that create a magnetic field!! A magnetic field is obtain when you can put the electrons to go in circle !! So the earth is like that! The surface of the earth is in perpetual mouvement with,the wind,the water,the rotation,the tempature.. To have a magnetic field , you have to initiate this by mouvement..

The equator's latitude is 0 degrees. It is an imaginary line that circles the Earth halfway between the North and South Poles.

The equator does not pass through the Arctic Ocean.

=the southern hemisphere is one half of the planet. which would be south of the equator so, from the equator which equals zero to 180 degrees from the equator== hemisphere= half ball== 180 degrees+180 degrees=360 degrees which is the amount of degrees in a ball=

Oh! NONE; neither through North nor Central America; the imaginary line named equator "cuts" the North of SOUTH AMERICA, "touching" three countries only: ECUADOR, COLOMBIA, BRAZIL.

The equator is an imaginary line that divides the Earth into the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. It is approximately 24,901 miles long and has a latitude of 0 degrees. Locations near the equator generally experience consistent daylight hours and warm temperatures throughout the year.

Australia is South of the Equator.

40,075 klms give or take around the equator and 40,008 around from north pole to south.

The Antarctic Circle is at 66 degrees 32 minutes S latitude and marks the point on the Earth's surface where the Sun does not appear above the horizon at the southern Winter Solstice. It also marks the northernmost point of the Antarctic Frigid Zone. The Tropic of Capricorn is at approximately 23 degrees 30 minutes S latitude and marks the point on the Earth's surface where the Sun is directly overhead at the southern Summer Solstice. It also marks the southernmost point of the Tropic Zone. The area between these two imaginary lines is known as the southern Temperate Zone.
