Description : Equator represents – (1) line joining North and South poles (2) imaginary line passing round the Earth midway between North & South poles (3) a belt (ring) around the planet Saturn (4) axis of rotation of Earth
Last Answer : (2) imaginary line passing round the Earth midway between North & South poles Explanation: An equator is the intersection of a sphere's surface with the plane perpendicular to the sphere ... astronomical bodies have equators similarly defined. The length of the Equator is roughly 40,075 kilometres.
Description : What is the International Date Line? (1) It is the equator (2) It is the 0° longitude (3) It is the 90° east longitude (4) It is the 180° longitude
