total number of merdians
Meridians run from north to south on the surface of the Earth, connecting the North Pole to the South Pole. They are the lines of longitude used in geospatial coordinate systems to indicate angular distance east or west from a prime meridian, such as the Greenwich Meridian.
The two imaginary lines that divide the earth in half are the Equator (divides the earth into Northern and Southern Hemispheres) and the Prime Meridian (divides the earth into Eastern and Western Hemispheres).
Yes, on the Eckert projection, parallels (latitude lines) and meridians (longitude lines) intersect at right angles. The Eckert projection is an equal-area map, which means it preserves area but distorts shape. While it maintains the right-angle intersections, the overall representation of landmasses may appear stretched or compressed compared to their actual shapes.
Cities located between the 35th and 40th meridians include parts of North Africa, the Middle East, and southern Europe. Notable cities in this range include Marrakech in Morocco, Tunis in Tunisia, and Istanbul in Turkey. In addition, cities like Rome in Italy and Athens in Greece also fall within this longitudinal band. This region exhibits diverse cultural and geographical characteristics.
