If you're installing hardwood floor boards over a strong 3/4 inch plywood sub-floor, then yes, you can install the hardwood floor parallel to the joists.
If your sub-floor is weak, then you should fix the subfloor.
There are no parallel lines that run FROM the equator. Lines that are parallel TO the equator are the latitudes.
_____ lines are parallel and run _____.
That depends on how well supported the floor is and that depends on how far apart the joists are placed. The closer they are, the more weight can be supported.
they are parallel lines.
I have done this and I always have the hardwood installed first. Then I install the ceramic tile. To protect the hardwood floor from getting grout or glue on it I cover the hardwood floor with a soft cover (to prevent scratches) and tape it down. Then place a plastic cover over the hardwood. Then I can install the ceramic tile at the edge of the hardwood creating hardly or no seem and level with the hardwood. When its done it looks beautiful.I would install the tile first , that way you don't risk getting glue or grout on your hardwood.
Typically you would not put hardwood flooring directly over the joists. You should first put down a subfloor.
Yes. Rafters and flloor joists do not have to run the same direction.
Yes, as long as you do not run it under the floor joists. New electrical code requires that you drill a hole through the floor joists and run the wire through those holes. It cannot be hanging under the floor joists. If you see wires are already running under the floor joists then go ahead and run the wire under the joists attaching it on every other joists with a wire staple. Make sure they wire does not make contact with any metal ductwork or any other metal objects. Match the wire with what is already in the wall outlet you are jumping off of. If it is 12/2 then use 12/2, if it is 14/2 then use 14/2. Never mix wire gauges.

parallel lines. they run side by side but never intersect
Ceilings do not have studs like walls do. Ceilings are typically supported by joists or beams that run horizontally across the top of the walls. These joists or beams provide the structural support for the ceiling.
To lay hardwood flooring properly, start by preparing the subfloor, ensuring it is clean and level. Acclimate the hardwood planks to the room's temperature and humidity. Begin laying the planks perpendicular to the floor joists, leaving a small gap around the edges for expansion. Use a flooring nailer or adhesive to secure the planks in place. Finish by adding trim and transitions for a polished look.

The different types of floor beam support used in construction include joists, girders, and beams. Joists are horizontal supports that run perpendicular to the floor beams, girders are larger beams that support the joists, and beams are horizontal or sloping supports that carry the load of the structure.
