Question

Can someone help me with number 3? show diagram it does not have to be a 3D diagram. You can draw it on a piece of paper.

1. List and explain the major geographical properties of the Equator as a latitude. 2.If you travel 100° south of latitude 60°N on what latitude will you be ? (Draw an appropriate diagram) . If you travel 70 west of longitude 120°W longitude, on what meridian (longitude) will you be? (Draw an appropriate diagram) 4. Identify the error in each of the following coordinate specifications (a) Lat.5°S Long.184°E (b) Lat.95°N Long.88°E (c) Lat 21.5°E Long.177°E (d) Lat.94°S Long.103ow (e) Lat.48°N Long.188ow 5.Compute the altitude of the noonday sun on May 15 at Darwin (12°S) and at Los Angeles (34°N).Which altitude is higher and what is the thermal consequence? Use the table of Sun's Declination and draw appropriate diagrams.

Answer 1

• Travelling 70 ° west of 120° W gives 120 -70 = 50°W

• In longitude, the movement will be either from left to right or from right to left. That is the horizontal motion. Travelling west means adding 70 to 120 gives, 190 which is 10 degrees after 180 degrees. Which will be 170 to the east.

• Here moving to the west means we have to add the value and it reaches the pole that is 180 degree and 10 degrees extra and this will be on the other half of the North south axis. from East this will be 180-10 = 170
