What else can I help you with?
Which one is hotter the Equator or the Poles?
On our Earth, the Equator is comparatively warmer than either of the Poles.
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.
How long does it take the sun to rotate once?
The Sun has a differential rotation, caused by Coriolis forces. Near the equator, one rotation takes about 25 days; near the poles, one rotation takes about 34 days.
How long does it takes for sun to rotate once?
Strangely, the Suns has a differential rotation. At the equator, it takes 25 days for one rotation; near the poles, 34 days.
Which region has specific seasons?
between the equator and one of the earth's poles
Why does the amount of heat from the equator become less?
The amount of heat from the equator becomes less as one moves towards the poles due to the increasing angle of sunlight. Near the equator, sunlight hits the Earth's surface more directly, providing more heat. However, as you move towards the poles, the sunlight is spread over a larger area, leading to less heat per unit area.
When and where does air move the fasest and the slowest?
I think air moves the fastest around the equator and slowest around the poles because if you think about it, the equator is always spinning & the poles just stay in one spot. .
Why are the hottest places near the Equator?
This is because the sun's rays directly fall near and in the equator. Thus the places near the equator are hot. The sun's rays falls slantingly towards the poles and so, the poles are not so hot.... - Shreya Santhosh
Is Asia near the equator?
yes
Which map projection stretches out the area around the North and South poles?
The polar projection, specifically the azimuthal polar projection, stretches out the area around the North and South poles. This type of projection represents the polar regions accurately but distorts the size and shape of landmasses as one moves away from the poles. Consequently, countries and continents near the equator appear smaller than they actually are, while those near the poles appear much larger.
Do meridians get parallel to one another as they get closer to the poles?
no. They are parallel to each other only at the equator. But as soon as you move away from the equator, they are no longer parallel.
Why locations near earth's equator travel faster during one rotation than places near the poles?
The Earth turns at 1000 miles an hour. If any place went slower or faster it would look like Jupiter. It would rip the Earth apart. Even at the poles you would spin at 1000 miles an hour.
