What does vertical line look like?
up and down like a pole
A woman walks in a straight line with the sun to her right at six o'clock in the morning. Toward which pole does she walk?
She is walking toward the North Pole
Is it possible to step across the equator?
The Equator, or any other line of Latitude, is merely an imaginary line. Though locals may mark its position on the ground for the tourists. You may indeed step across it. Similarly for lines of Longitude that run from Pole to Pole. As a line, of course they have no thickness.
A pole is 20 feet long its shadow is 7.5 feet long if you draw a line from the tip of the pole to the tip of the shadow how long will the line be?
Assuming the ground is flat, you can apply Pythagoras's theorem and: length = sqrt(202 + 7.52) = sqrt(456.25) = 21.36 feet (approx).
A line joining pole and centre of curvature of the mirror is called?
PRINCIPAL AXIS
What is the center of spherical mirror?
The geometric centre of a spherical mirror is called its pole. The centre of the hollow sphere for which the mirror is a part, is called the centre of curvature. The line joining the centre of curvature and the pole is the principal axis. A light ray incident on a spherical mirror, after reflection appears to pass through the principal focus in the case of a convex mirror and passes through the focus in the case of concave mirror. The diameter of the spherical mirror gives the measure of its aperture
What is principal axis of a mirror?
the imaginary line passing through the the center of curvature and pole is called the principal axis.
What is the name of the line joining the poles at right angles to the equator?
"Meridian of longitude"Your description of the line is interesting. Can you draw a line from north pole to south pole that does NOT form right angles with the equator ???
Difference between magnetic meridian and geographical meridian?
magnetic meridian is a line joining the two magnetic pole while geographic meridian is a line joining the two geographic poles
Is the image larger or smaller through a convex lens?
both according to the position of the image in front of the lensif placed in infiniity or beyond the centre of curvature the image will be small if placed between centre of curvatureand pole the image will be bigger in size
The earth spins on its what?
On its AXIS. The axis if an imaginary line that strikes through the Earth from North Pole to South Pole through the centre of the Earth.
Is there a imaginary pole going through the earth call the equator?
No- the equator is an imaginary line running around the circumference of the earth's centre. The earth's axis is an imaginary pole which runs from the North Pole to the South Pole
What prevents one from blowing directly from the North Pole to the South Pole?
The curvature of the Earth is one barrier to prohibit you from blowing directly from one pole to the other.
What prevents wind from bowing directly from the North Pole to the South Pole?
The spinning and the curvature of the Earth may both impede this phenomenon.
What is an axis of rotation?
An axis of rotation is the axis around which any body rotates, or the line joining the North Pole and the South Pole about which the planet Earth rotates on a daily basis.
What what does the earth rotate?
Its axis The earth rotates around its axis - an imaginary line running from the North Pole through the centre of the earth to the South Pole. It rotates around this line once every day. it is this rotation which causes day and night. axis
