and the orientation of Earth rotation axis in  the space

as we know ECI frames is the origin at the center of mass of the  earth

and it is not rotating with respect to the star

and ECI Earth-centered inertial frame use for NORAD that is called here true equator

Why are the N, S, E, and W designations often omitted from coordinates on U.S. topographic maps?
Karolina [17]
In a Topographic map,  here are the programming values of each of that navgations:

N = positive value to the latitude
S= Negative value to the Latitude
W = Positive value to the longitude
E = Negative value to the longitude

Most programmers that work to create the topographic map choose to simply ommit the <span>N,S,W,&E</span> because it will save them a lot of time from having to type in a minus sign before most of their longitude values in code writing.<span>

Is the earth getting hotter because we are getting to the center of the universe
tankabanditka [31]

The Earth is not getting hotter because it is getting to the center of the universe.

There's two main reasons as to why the Earth is getting hotter:

1. Natural cycle

We are in a period when the Earth is in between glaciation, with one of them being behind us, and the other one being in the future. In the period in between, the Earth has the tendency to become warmer and warmer because of the change of the composition of the atmosphere, as well as the ocean currents.

2. Human activity

The people have been contributing for the increase in the warming process in the past century, and that has been done with the large release of CO2 and methane in the atmosphere. These two gases are gases that trap more heat in the atmosphere, thus resulting in an increase of the Greenhouse effect.

Explain how volcanoes are formed.
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

A volcano is formed when hot molten rock, ash and gases escape from an opening in the Earth's surface. The molten rock and ash solidify as they cool, forming the distinctive volcano shape shown here. As a volcano erupts, it spills lava that flows downslope. Hot ash and gases are thrown into the air.
