What are the differences of the locations of the North and South poles?
Both poles are located at 90 degrees. The North Pole is located north of the Equator and the South Pole is located south of the Equator.
Facts about magnet?
Magnets have 2 different sides called North pole and South pole. If a north pole is attracted to another north pole they will repelel same with a south and a south pole.
Miles for north pole to south pole?
The distance between the North Pole and South Pole is 12,430 miles. This mileage is calculated on the assumption one could travel between these locations in a straight line.
Are the locations of the magnetic South Pole and the geographic North Pole near Antarctica or the Arctic?
Anything north is Arctic, anything south is Antarctic.
Is the magnetic pole near the Earths true North Pole a magnetic south pole or a magnetic north pole?
Earths geographic North Pole is also currently a magnetic north pole. This is however not always the case because over geological time scales the Earth's magnetic poles flip as a result of changes of flow in Earth's molten core which produces Earth's magnetic field.
Are Alaska and Canada and Greenland and Siberia and Norway closer to the South Pole or the North Pole?
Alaska, Canada, and Greenland are closer to the North Pole, while Siberia and Norway are also closer to the North Pole but farther south compared to the other three. Greenland is the closest to the North Pole out of the mentioned regions.
Why does the north end of a compass point north?
It doesn't.But let's start with a little background. 'True North' and 'True South' are fixed locations that coincide with the earth's axis of rotation. The earth's magnetic field exists between 'Magnetic North' and 'Magnetic South', so-called to distinguish these locations from 'True North' and 'True South'. The locations of 'Magnetic North' and 'Magnetic South' are always moving relative to the positions of 'True North' and 'True South'.It's important to understand that 'Magnetic North' and 'Magnetic South' are locations, and not the magnetic polarities of these locations!The ends of a compass needle are named after the directions in which they point. Originally, they were called the 'north-seeking pole' and the 'south-seeking pole' respectively, because those are the directions in which they roughly pointed. Actually, they point to Magnetic North and Magnetic South, not True North or True South. By convention, these names (these days, shortened to 'north' and 'south') also define the magnetic polarities of the compass needle.Because 'opposite poles attract', the magnetic polarity of Magnetic North must be a south pole in order to attract the north pole of a compass needle. And, of course, the magnetic polarity of Magnetic South must be a north pole in order to attract the south pole of a compass needle.
How are the southpole and the south magnetic pole different?
The "South Pole" (and the North Pole) is the axis about which the earth rotates. The "South Magnetic Pole" has nothing to do with the South Pole other than they are located within the Antarctic Circle. All magnets have a North and South Pole, the "South Magnetic Pole" and the "North Magnetic Pole" are the opposite ends of the earth's magnetic field.
How is 90.8 N. latitude different from 90. South latitude?
You cannot have 90.8 North. The maximum is 90 North. It is the North Pole. 90 South is the South Pole.
How is 90 degres north latitude different from 90 degres latitude?
90 degrees north latitude is different from 90 degrees south latitude is that 90 north is at the north pole 90 south is at the south pole
How is north pole different from south pole geographically?
north pole is much more colder than south pole believe it or not! and there are alot of different animals living in each pole! in the south pole there are penguins which live there and in the north pole there are polar bears and during the winter season, the south pole hardly receives any sunlight at all! but it is different in the north pole! you will find actuall humans living there!
How many miles is it from the south pole to the north pole?
It takes about 12,450.5 miles from the north pole to the south pole or south pole to north pole.
