Which lines of longitude and latitude vary in length?
-- All meridians of longitude have the same length ... they all join the north and south poles. -- Each parallel of north latitude has the same length as the parallel at the equal south latitude, but no other one.
Why does the length of the parallel decreases towards the pole?
You may be thinking of the distance between lines of longitude. The length of the lines of latitude decrease because the Earth is round, so the length of the line is shorter at the poles than it is at the Equator. The distance between the lines of longitude is shorter as you move toward the poles, again, because the Earth is round. All lines of longitude are the same length.
Why are longitudes equal in length?
Every line of constant longitude joins the north and south poles. Therefore the length of every line of constant longitude is one half of the earth's polar circumference.
What is the length of daylight at 1 degree?
1 degree longitude or latitude? What day of the year? Middle of winter, 1 degree latitude, no daylight. But middle of summer same place, 24 hours.
Does length of the pendulum affect its period?
Technically and mathematically, the length is the onlything that affects its period.
How does the length of day time and night time affect the season?
The length of day does not affect the season.
What location always has the same length of day?
Everywhere: the length of the day is always 24 hours irrespective of latitude & longitude since the angular rotation of the planet is 360º per 24hours. The DAYLIGHT length changes seasonally and proportionally to latitude, but the DAY length is constant.
What factors would affect the length of the day?
The length of the day would change if either the rotational speed of the the planet or the orbital distance from the sun changed. However, if you mean what factors affect the length of daylight, then that is different.
Does length of day light affect roosters being fertile?
no
Is earth day the same around the world?
If you mean the length of the day, yes - that is the same around the Earth. The Earth rotates as a rigid body. If by day length you mean hours of sunlight. On the same lines of latitude day length will be the same, but due to the wobble in the rotation of the earth, day length is different along lines of longitude.
How does the movement of the earth affect the length of its day and its year?
the tilt of the planet
If the entire population of world moved to antarctica would it affect th length of day if so how?
It would have zero effect.The length of a day is determined by one's location on the planet.
How does the length of day affect humans?
I think the length of day affects humans by sleeping earlier or later, they can also be affected by having different emotions. But I think I'm wrong...
Which direction does longitude lines travel in?
If you have a map or globe with some longitude lines printed on it, you'll find that they stay where they are and do not move from day to day. Regardless of how many there may be on your particular map or globe, each of them joins the north and south poles, and has the same length ... about 12,500 miles.
What is the longest line of longitude?
The lines of longitude are all the same length. There is no longest line of longitude. Now, if you mean latitude, then that would be the equator.
Is the length of the degree of longitude the same at any latitude?
No.
What factors does not affect climates in a given area?
longitude
