A) The elevation finder can help you find out the elevation of land for a country, place or other location. You can even figure out the land elevation below the sea or ocean. You can do this by typing in an address, name of a place, coordinates etc., into the corresponding input fields above.
I saw an experiment in a small ramshackle museum in Ecuador on the equator. There was a sink on a stand. When it was placed a metre on one side of the equator the water circled clockwise as it drained, one metre on the other side the water drained anti-clockwise and when directly over the equator the water drained, straight down, with no rotation.
On either side of the equator, in all ocean basins, there are two west flowing currents: the North and South Equatorial (Figure 8q-1) . These currents flow between 3 and 6 kilometers per day and usually extend 100 to 200 meters in depth below the ocean surface.n either side of the equator, in all ocean basins, there are two west flowing currents: the North and South Equatorial (Figure 8q-1) .
