Name 5 different ways the north pole and south pole are different?
1.the north pole has no land under it and is only frozen ocean while the south pole has land under it even a mountain range called the transantarctic.
2. the north pole is where polar bears live and the antarctic is were the penguins live.
3. the south pole is the only continent that doesn't belong to anyone although in the post various explorers have claimed Antarctica as the antarctic treaty was made all claimed parts are set aside as long as the treaty lasts. while the north pole is claimed and owned.
4.the north pole is being mined and one of the largest oil resources in the world Antarctica (the south pole) is protected from any mining by the antarctic treaty.
5.the north pole is warmer place even though it is very cold getting to -27 C it is still not as cold as the -34 C or the coldest recorded -128 C.
As u see they are quite different!!
;)
At the North Pole around September 21st, the sun would be low in the sky or just above the horizon, as the region experiences the autumnal equinox when day and night are of approximately equal duration. As fall progresses, the sun would gradually dip lower until it eventually sets for the polar night.

The latitudinal difference between 30 degrees North and 48 degrees North is 18 degrees. This means that 48 degrees North is located 18 degrees further north of the equator compared to 30 degrees North.
29 degrees North and 32 degrees?
It seems like your question got cut off. Please provide more information or clarify what you need help with regarding the given coordinates 29 degrees North and 32 degrees.
Why do countrys close to the poles have 24hour daylight in the summer?
It has to do with the tilt of the earth with respect to it's orbit plane. In the months of April to September the northern half of the globe faces the sun and the southern half is dark. During the rest of the year it's reversed.
The temperature of a winter day at the north pole -40.0 c?
The temperature of a winter day at the North Pole is typically around -40.0°C as it is one of the coldest regions on Earth due to its high latitude and lack of sunlight during the winter months. Such extreme cold temperatures are common in polar regions.
Does the sunlight hits almost straight on near the equator?
More Than "almost." the sun hits right on the equator. In fact, if you have a flagpole on the equator, there will be no shadow at noon. But the equator is not the only place where this happens. This happens Up to the tropics (tropic of cancer and tropic of Capricorn).
What is the special latitude line at 23 degrees called?
The Tropic of Cancer is about 23 degrees north latitude and the Tropic of Capricorn is 23 degrees south. They signify the highest and lowest latitudes in which the sun appears directly overhead.
How many statue miles are there on a degree of longitude at the poles?
Roughly 69 miles, it varies a little because of the earth's shape.
North Pole is located in this country?
No, the North Pole is in the Arctic Ocean. Under international law, no country currently owns the North Pole or the region of the Arctic Ocean surrounding it. It's near Russia, Canada, Norway, and Denmark (via Greenland).
What houses are at the North Pole?
Yes! In fact, there's more than one.
The geographic north pole is where the axis of the Earth's rotation meets the surface north of the equator. It is located in the Arctic Sea, but is usually frozen over.
The magnetic north pole is where one end of a compass points. It drifts over time: it was among the islands of northern Canada, but it has recently moved into the Arctic Sea.
North Pole is also the name of two towns, one in Alaska and one in New York. Both attract tourists by claiming to be the home of Santa Claus and having Christmas-themed attractions.
But, on a map, you can't see it. Almost like it was located inside the Earth itself. You can't see the exact pin point, but its there.

Dublin is closer to the North Pole than New York. The distance from Dublin to the North Pole is about 2,500 kilometers, while the distance from New York to the North Pole is about 4,800 kilometers.
Which has land under it north pole or the south pol?
The North Pole is located in the Arctic Ocean and is covered by floating sea ice with no land underneath. In contrast, the South Pole is located on the continent of Antarctica, which is a landmass covered by ice sheets.
The technical definition of a desert is an area of land that receives on average less than 250mm of precipitation in a year. The inland Arctic receives less than 150mm and so is indeed a desert (the second largest in the world, with the first being Antarctica).
What change might pollution be causing to the ozone layer the north and south poles?
There is the possibility that man is making the seasonal thinning of the ozone layer at the poles worse. The degree that man's use of CFC's has added to this issue is unknown, although many fringe groups believe that man plays a large part in the issue. We do know that this thinning does happenannually and is natural. We also know that the largest thinning of this hole we can trace through science happened in the mid 1800's, before we used cfc's.
Is the south pole colder than the equator?
Yes. The cold climate at the south pole is the result of the vast amount of ice near it, and the fact
that it is located in the middle of Antarctica, which is well known to be a very cold place. In contrast,
the equator is a line that was intentionally drawn through some of the hottest places on earth, in a
shameless attempt to attract tourist dollars.
Where is 115 degree east longitude 15 degree north latitude?
That point is in the South China Sea, practically midway between
the coasts of Vietnam and the Philippines.
What would be the solar time of a person living 1 degree of longitude west of the noon meridian?
The person would experience solar noon 4 minutes earlier for every degree west of the noon meridian they are. So, living 1 degree west of the noon meridian, the solar time would be 4 minutes before noon.
What is the distance in miles between 66 degrees west and 60 degrees west at 44 degrees north?
To find the distance between two lines of longitude at a specific latitude, you can use the formula: Distance = radius of Earth * |longitude difference| * cos(latitude). Given a radius of Earth ≈ 3,963 miles, the distance between 66 degrees west and 60 degrees west at 44 degrees north latitude would be approximately 371 miles.
Capircorn is what south of the equator?
Capricorn is located to the south of the equator at a latitude of 23.5 degrees south. It is one of the five major circles of latitude that mark maps of the Earth and is equivalent to the Tropic of Cancer in the Northern Hemisphere.
