What surface is 90 degrees to a horizntail surface?
A wall is an example of a surface standing at 90 degrees from the horizontal.
What is flat surface called?
A flat surface generally refers to a horizontal surface and is referred to as the plane.
Are contour lines used to indicate horizontal distances or vertical distances on earths surface?
Horizontal
What is a horizontal line or surface starting with L?
Latitude.
What do you use to determine if a surface is exactly horizontal?
dc
What surface is 90 degrees to a horizntail surface?
A wall is an example of a surface standing at 90 degrees from the horizontal.
Magma that hardens vertically underneath the surface will form a sill?
Yes, that's correct. Sills are igneous rock formations that form when magma is intruded horizontally between rock layers and then solidifies underground. If the magma solidifies vertically underneath the surface, it will create a sill structure.
What is meaning of horizontal component of earth's magnetic field?
The horizontal component of Earth's magnetic field refers to the portion of the magnetic field that runs parallel to Earth's surface. It is responsible for the direction in which a compass needle points towards the magnetic north pole. Understanding the horizontal component is important for navigation and studying the Earth's magnetic field.

What can we use to measure gravity that pulls something else?
You can use an accelerometer to measure the gravitational force that pulls something else towards the center of the Earth. Accelerometers detect changes in acceleration, including the acceleration due to gravity.
How do you find the height of a right cone?
What surface is 90 degrees to a horizontal surface?
Perpendicular
How are megapixels determined?
They are determined by multiplying the horizontal pixels of an image by the vertical ones.
Why a vertical datum is alevel surface not a horizontal surface?
because the datum surface is perpendicular tothe direction of gravity at any point on it.but the horizontal surface is perpendicular to vertical at one point on it :D
In what direction is the polarization of the glare that reflects from a horizontal surface?
The glare that reflects from a horizontal surface is horizontally polarized, meaning the light waves are mostly oscillating in a horizontal plane. This polarization causes the glare to be more intense when viewed horizontally.
What is a level a tool which shows if an object has an even horizontal surface?
A level is a tool that is placed on a solid surface. There is a string hanging on the level, and if it tilts, the surface isn't an even horizontal surface. If the string doesn't tilt, the surface is even.
