Are the lines of longitude the same distance apart at the equator as they are at the poles?
No. All of the meridians merge in a single point at the poles.
Function of a magnetic compass?
The function of a magnetic compass is to show the direction toward the magnetic poles of the Earth. It is used as a navigation tool.
How do you find the height of a pole if you know how from the pole you are?
two vertical poles of equal height stand on either of a roadway wich is 20 ft wide. At a point in the roadway b/n the poles, the elevation of the taps of the poles are 30 degree and 60 degree. Find the height of the poles?
What is the center point from which all meridians begin?
The ends of all meridians of longitude converge at the north and south poles. Their centers are all on the equator.
Two vertical poles of height 1 yard and 2 yards are located 3 yards apart?
The whole question is Two vertical poles of height 1 yard and 2 yards are located 3 yards apart. The poles are secured by the rope going from the top of one pole to a poing on the ground between the poles and then to the top of the second pole. Where should the point on the ground be located to minimize the length of the rope. What is the minimal leght of the rope? Can someone please help
When an RC driving point impedance function has zeros at s -2 and s-5 then the admissible poles for the function would be?
3
Poles and zeros of a driving point function of a network are simple and interlace on the jw axis The network consists of which elements?
L and C
The poles and zeros of a driving point function of a network are simple and interlaced on negative real axis with pole closest to the orginWith what type of network can it be realized?
The network function h(s) is actually the ratio of two polynomials functions i.e s(a) /s(b),The roots of the s(a) function are called zeros and the roots of the s(b) function are called poles.
Are the lines of longitude the same distance apart at the equator as they are at the poles?
No. All of the meridians merge in a single point at the poles.
What is the same about the north and south poles?
they are both at the point of the earth
Function of a magnetic compass?
The function of a magnetic compass is to show the direction toward the magnetic poles of the Earth. It is used as a navigation tool.
What is the farthest point on the Earth's surface from both magnetic poles?
the equator.
During the solstices where do earths poles point in relation to the sun?
somewere
What is the starting point for all lines of longitude?
The North and South Poles.
Is there anywhere on earth a compass will not work?
Yes, at the magnetic poles (North and South) a compass needle will not point to the true north, rather it will point vertically downwards or upwards. This is because the magnetic field lines converge at the poles.
Lines of longitude meet where?
Lines of longitude meet at the poles, both North and South. At the North Pole, all lines of longitude converge and meet at a single point. The same holds true for the South Pole, where lines of longitude also converge and meet at a single point.
Can you point me to an image of the painting Blue Poles by Jackson Pollock?
