How does the amount of solar energy change at the South Pole during the year?
Yes, there is only one sunrise at the South Pole annually, and there are no sunsets during the six months that the sun is up. Conversely, when the sun sets -- once per year -- there is no solar energy that reaches the pole.
What is the country name which have six month day and six month night?
NO COUNTRY has six-month day and six-month night. That only happens
at the north and south poles, and the poles are not part of any country.
What would the speed of the earths rotation be if it was on the north or south pole?
If you are at exactly the north or south pole the measurement is in Revolutions per Day
And that speed is 1 Revolution Per Day.
Why are there so many meteorites found at the South Pole?
The meterorites stay on the top of the ice and there are no animals and humans to disturb them. They stick out because there are few other rocks on the surface.
How many degrees south of equator is KEROLA India?

Is North America closer to Argentina or South Pole?
North America is closer to Argentian than to the South Pole. Argentina is between North America and the South Pole.
Were there trees in Antarctica?
yes, there were trees in Antarctica before almost 200 million years ago when dinosaurs were existed
Do the north pole and south pole meet in Antarctica?
No. The North Pole is in the Arctic, the South Pole in the Antarctic- opposite end of the Earth.
If you travel along a line of longitude from the South Pole, you would travel directly northwards.
How do living things in South Pole help each other?
There are no naturally occurring 'living things' at the South Pole, except for the scientists and workers who live and work there temporarily, studying the health of planet Earth. These people help each other by committing their time to completing their assigned tasks.
Otherwise, the continent of Antarctica is too cold to support life; and there is no food chain on the continent.
What organisms live at the South Pole?
There are no natural-occuring living organisms at the South Pole. It's too cold and there is no food chain there.

There is no official language anywhere on Antarctica. However, the international language of science is English with supplements as required in French.
How is South African society facing a crisis in mineral supply?
With firm determination, unwaveringly, with stern resolve and stiff upper lips.
Is the south pole on the land or just off the coast in the sea?
The Earth's South Pole is situated on land (or rather on Ice which is covering land), near the middle of the continent of Antarctica.
The Earth's North Pole is situated in the sea (or rather on Ice which is floating on the sea), near in the middle of the Arctic Ocean.
Does a year at the South Pole consist of 6 months of day and 6 months of night?
Only one half of a planet (sphere) can be illuminated at any one time. A pole, the end of a planetary axis, is either tilted toward the sun, and stays in the Sun as the Earth spins, or tilted away from the Sun, and cannot move into daylight.
Areas within the Arctic Circle or Antarctic Circle (a latitude of 66.6 degrees or more) will experience one or more days of 24 hours of sunlight, and conversely one or more days of 24 hours without sunlight. The closer one gets to a pole, the longer or shorter this period of continual day or night, which is popularly described as the "midnight sun" and the "polar night." The effect of twilight reduces the actual periods of nighttime darkness, but the Sun will also never rise very high in the sky even in summer.
Locations that experience the phenomenon are northern parts of Alaska (US), Canada, Greenland (Denmark), Iceland, Finland, Norway, Sweden, and Russia. Large uninhabited areas of Antarctica also experience these extended days and extended night.
*Because of the width of the solar disc, slightly more than half of the Earth receives sunlight at any given time. Polar nights are never exactly 6 months long, and on the equinox days, the Sun can be on the horizons of both poles at the same time.
What mode of transport did Sir Edmund Hillary and his team use to travel to the South Pole?
On the Commonwealth Trans-Antarctic Expedition of 1955 to 1958. Hillary and his team used converted Massey Ferguson TE20 tractors, fitted with an extra wheel on each side and full caterpillar tracks, developed by the expedition in the Antarctic. The track kits were easily removable and in light conditions the tractors were used on standard wheels and tyres. A canvas cabin was added for windproofing. Apart from this, the tractors were totally bog-standard. Two were even fitted with a standard farmyard hydraulic front-loader for loading and unloading supplies.
One of the tractors used by Hillary's party is on display along with other British Trans Antarctic Expedition vehicles in the Canterbury Museum in Christchurch, New Zealand.

I have an 05 Yamaha motorcycle When i go from 2nd to 3rd it doesn't go in to gear some times?
First thing is do an oil change. Reason being is because the clutch uses the engine oil for lubrication. If you have old oil that has broken down it can cause problems. I run synthetic, Mobil 1 20w50. Give that a try first. If that doesn't work, you will have to take it into the shop and have the clutch plates looked at.
