Hemispheres

There is no time when the complete northern hemisphere is dark. As the earth rotates there is always some part of the northern hemisphere facing the sun, so it is bright there, and there is always a part of it that is facing away from the sun, so it is dark there.

Mauna Loa is located in the Northern Hemisphere. It is the largest volcano in the world and is situated on the Big Island of Hawaii.

There are a total of 88 recognized constellations in the night sky, and approximately 48 of these are visible in the northern hemisphere.

Mt. Matterhorn is located in the northern and eastern hemispheres.

In the northern hemisphere, the moon generally rises in the east and sets in the west, just like the sun. However, the precise direction can vary slightly depending on the moon's position relative to the Earth's axis and the observer's location.

On June 21, days are longer in the Northern Hemisphere because it is the summer solstice in this region. The summer solstice marks the longest day of the year with the most daylight hours.

Yes, Polaris, the North Star, is located very close to the north celestial pole, making it a reliable guide for navigation in the Earth's northern hemisphere. By locating Polaris, navigators can determine true north and orient themselves accurately.

This happens at the spring and autumn equinoxes. Equinoxes occur twice a year, when the tilt of the Earth's axis is oriented neither from or to the Sun, causing the Sun to be located over the equator. They occur on the 20th or 21st of March (spring) and 22nd or 23rd September (autumn).

In the southern hemisphere, you can observe constellations like Crux (Southern Cross) and Centaurus, as well as the bright star Achernar. The Milky Way is also particularly vibrant when viewed from the southern hemisphere due to its position in the sky. Look out for objects like the Magellanic Clouds and the Carina Nebula for stunning views through a telescope.

True. The Little Dipper is a prominent constellation located in the northern celestial hemisphere and can be easily seen in the night sky from the northern hemisphere.

Tornadoes in the southern hemisphere spin clockwise with the exception of rare anticyclonic tornadoes.

!80 degrees east of Greenwich and then one crosses over to West Longitude

Two places in different hemispheres can have the same time if they are both in the same time zone. Time zones are defined by a range of longitudes, so places within that range will have the same time despite being in different hemispheres.

they are either having the rays of the sun hitting the pole all day because of its tilt, it is always facing the sun. Or, because of the tilt, the pole is always facing away from the sun and its rays

1. Precipitation occurs when water droplets in clouds grow large enough to fall to the ground due to gravity.
2. The key processes that lead to this growth include condensation, coalescence, and collision of water droplets in clouds.

The earth tilts on its axis. As it goes around the sun the sun shines more on the southern part of the earth in winter. It shines on both in spring and fall and it shines more on the northern part in summer. Where the sun shines the most, it heats it up the most. Where it shines less, it heats it up less.

but it has to be either: (which one is it?)

a.atmosphere and lithosphere

b.condensation and evaporation

c. reservoirs and head waters

d.temerature and percipitation

The two days of the year when neither hemisphere is tilted toward the sun are the equinoxes. These occur around March 20-21 and September 22-23 each year. On these dates, day and night are approximately equal in length.

Each of the two days of the year when neither hemisphere is tilted toward or away from the sun is called an equinox. This occurs around March 21st and September 23rd each year.

The imaginary line 180 degrees east and west of the Prime Meridian is called the International Date Line. Crossed from west to east, the date moves back by one day.

The International Date Line follows the 180th meridian to prevent dividing countries into two different calendar days. It bends around certain territories and islands to ensure that each country remains within a single day. This results in the International Date Line not being a straight line.

The point at 0 degrees latitude and 77 degrees west longitude runs through the central part of the South American country, Brazil. The coordinates intersect in the Amazon Rainforest region, which is known for its rich biodiversity and dense vegetation.

0 degrees longitude, also known as the Prime Meridian, was established as the starting point for measuring longitude by convention, making it a reference point for all other meridians. It is not designated as east or west to avoid favoring any specific location as the point of reference for the entire world. By choosing an arbitrary starting point, it allows for a standard reference system to be universally adopted.

Look for a colored line that goes straight north-south from the North Pole to the South Pole - latitudes. Longitudes are evenly spaced all the way around a globe. They will be equally spaced. The big one at the middle of the globe is the Equator. They have numbers on them. They start at 0 on the Equator.

Yes, but during the day it is harder to see the moon but it happens a lot. Yes. The moon takes about 25 hours to circle the earth, so if you start on a night when the moon rises as the sun sets, about 12 days later they will rise together. It happens once a month (twice occasionally) and is called the "New Moon".

there are 180 degrees of latitudes 90 in each hemisphere 181 in total counting the equator
