== == The perimeter of the equator is the greatest because the earth is a flattened sphere shape due to the influence of centrifugal force - a result of its rotation. The tropic of Cancer is slightly greater than the Tropic of Capricorn as there is a majority of continental land in the north. Land has a higher elevation than sea and to go around it you have to go to a higher elevation (radius) which means a greater perimeter. The north south distance is the least as it is a straight line.
The difference (greater minus lesser) is the distance between them.
Yes, because the distance is a metric which is defined in that way.
Directly proportional. Greater speed - greater distance.
5.1 km is the greater distance.5001 m = 5.001 km < 5.1 km
It is greater by 18.8 feet.
The equator is a longer imaginary line.
The distance around the Tropic of Capricorn is greater.

I'm thinking center to equator
Until 1983 the metre was defined at one ten millionth of the distance from the equator to the north pole. That definition has changed to reflect greater understanding and knowledge. Originally, the meter was based on the distance between the equator and the north pole along the meridian that went through Paris. That distance was set at 10,000 kilometers and the metre was ten millionth of the distance.
The distance between the North and South poles
The earth is spherical, causing different distance to the sun. The middle part of the earth known as the Equator, is the closet to the sun, causing higher temperature than the other parts, the Tropics Of Cancer and Capricorn are above and below the Equator causing low temperature than that of the equator. And followed by the Arctic and Antarctic region, which are the coldest part of the earth because they are the farthest from the sun.
It is greater at the Equator. The boundary between the troposphere and the stratosphere varying in altitude from approximately 8 kilometers (5 miles) at the poles to approximately 18 kilometers (11 miles) at the equator.
No, the distance around the equator is greater than the distance from the North Pole to the South Pole. The circumference of the Earth at the equator is roughly 40,075 kilometers, while the distance from the North Pole to the South Pole (along the meridian) is about 20,009 kilometers.
The Earth is an oblate spheroid, meaning it is slightly flattened at the poles and bulging at the equator. This bulging at the equator results in a greater equatorial distance compared to the polar distance. This is due to the centrifugal force generated by the Earth's rotation, which causes the equatorial regions to bulge outwards.
The latitude can be thought of as the distance from the equator. 0 degrees latitude is the equator, which is typically warmer than locations closer than the poles. As you move away from the Equator and towards the North or South poles, the weather tends to be colder. In contrast, the region between the poles and the equator often has a greater temperature range variation.
The force of gravity between two objects depends on their masses and the distance between them. The force is greater when the masses are larger and/or the distance is smaller.
