Question
where is the earths circumference the greatest? *
2 points
equator
mid - latitudes
poles
rotational axis
Brief Explanations
The Earth is an oblate spheroid. Due to its rotation, it bulges at the equator. This bulge causes the equatorial circumference to be greater than at other regions like mid - latitudes, poles (where it is the smallest), or along the rotational axis (which is a line, not a region for circumference measurement).
