How many km in a degree?
Those two are utterly unrelated; you can't convert one to the other.
The scale on a map reads 2 cm equals 150 kmhow many kilometerswould be represented by a distance of 4 centimeters?
2 cm = 150 km 4 cm = 300 km
Are the lines of latitude equidistant at all points?
Yes. All latitudes are approximately 111 km apart.
What is the width and length of the Asian continent?
Mainland Asia ranges through about 77° of latitude and 195° of longitude, distances of about 8,560 km long by 9,600 km wide according to Chambers, or 8,700 km long by 9,700 km wide according to Pearson's.
Which line of latitude is the longest?
The locus of all points of zero latitude ... sometimes also known as the "Equator" ... is the longest parallel of constant latitude. It's length is the equatorial circumference of the earth ... roughly 24,900 miles (40,073 km) .
How many km are represented by 1degree latitude?
about 111.1 km
How many miles in a degree of latitude at 46.5 latitude and 80.9 longitude?
1 degree of latitude is about 111 km or about 69 miles. Anywhere.
How many miles and kilometers does 1 degree of latitude represent?
1 degree of latitude =70 miles (112 km)
About how many kilometers separate Orlando Florida at 29 degree north latitude?
600.98 km
What distance is represented by one second of latitude. 60 minutes for each degree?
one minute of latitude is approximately 1.15 miles (1.853 km). You can just divide that by 60 to get the distance for one second and multiply 60 to get 60 minutes.
What is the approximate distance between each degree of latitude?
111.12 km
How many miles are in degree?
One degree of latitude, and one degree of longitude along the equator only, is equivalent to roughly 69.1 miles (111 km). One degree of latitude, and of longitude on the equator only, is also equal to about 60 nautical miles.
How many kilometers are in a degree of longitude?
Lines of longitude are not parallel. They all converge at both the North Pole and the South Pole. Therefore there is no numeric constant to this value. The maximum distance represented by one degree of longitude, measured along a line of latitude (that is, parallel to the Equator), would be approximately 40,076 km divided by 360, or 111.3 km (69.2 mi).
How many miles are in one degree?
One degree of latitude, and one degree of longitude along the equator only, is equivalent to roughly 69.1 miles (111 km). One degree of latitude, and of longitude on the equator only, is also equal to about 60 nautical miles.
If you were to travel through an angle of 8 degrees across the surface of the earth through how many kilometers would you have traveled?
It depends on your latitude. At the equator (0 degrees) a degree of longitude covers just over 111 km, so 8 degrees would be about 890 km. At 45 degrees of latitude, a degree of longitude covers just under 79 km, so 8 degress would be about 555 km. Check out the calculator in the related link. Enter the degrees of latitude and it gives the length of a degree at that point.
What is the distance between two longitudes at the equator?
At the equator, the circumference of the Earth is 40,075.16 km ( 24,901.55 miles). Divide that into 360 equal pieces to get the distance for each one degree of longitude. A degree of longitude at the equator is equal to 111.32 km.
How length of 1 degree of latitude is less at equator and greater at poles?
1 degree of latitude represents the same distance everywhere . . . about 111 km. 1 degree of longitude represents a distance of (111 km) x (cosine of the latitude). That's about 111 km along the equator and dwindles to zero at the poles, because all of the longitudes converge (meet, come together) at the poles.
