Why the compass shows north in Telugu?
same reason it shows North anywhere. The needle of a compass is a magnet. It points to the North Magnetic Pole.
The arrow on magnetic field lines shows them flowing in which direction?
The arrow on magnetic field lines shows the direction in which a north magnetic pole would be drawn if placed in the field at that point. This convention is used to represent the magnetic field direction moving from north to south.
What is a magnetic compass?
A magnetic compass has a needle mounted in a way that allows it to turn freely. Tis needle always lines up with Earth's magnetic field and points toward magnetic north. The needle is set over a diagram that shows east,south, and west. By knowing which way is north, a sailor can find the other diections.

Which machine shows direction?
A compass is a machine that shows direction by pointing toward the magnetic north pole.
What information can be derived from an isogonic map?
An isogonic map shows lines of equal magnetic declination, which is the angle between true north and magnetic north. This information can be used to determine the magnetic variation at different locations on the map.
Does a map show true north?
yes it does and a compass shows magnetic north. this is where declination takes course between the difference of the two
Choose the best description of a magnetic field line AMagnetic field lines always point north BA magnetic field line shows the direction a compass needle would point CMagnetic field lines?
From that list, I'll have to go with 'B'.
How do you find the direction in a topographic map?
Look for the compass rose, it will point North. Also look for the table that shows map north, true north and magnetic north.
What is a compass north south east and west?
It is called a mariners compass, it is a instrument that shows the North, east, West and South, and is used by pilots and the sailors.
How does a magnetic needle shows north direction?
It aligns with the Earth Magnetic field. The Earth is a huge dynamo. Its center made of nickel is surrounded by molten iron and other metals this generates a complex magnetic field. It meanders. That is it varies in location. You can find a map of its' previous locations.Alternative AnswerAs the previous answer says, a compass needle will align itself with the earth's magnetic field, thus indicating 'Magnetic North'. The term 'Magnetic North' is used to differentiate this direction from 'True North', and navigators must know where Magnetic North is, relative to True North, to accurately plot a course.Bear in mind, however, that 'Magnetic North' is a direction, and NOT a magnetic polarity. The magnetic polarity of Magnetic North is actually a south pole and, since 'unlike poles attract', it attracts the north (-seeking) end of the compass needle.
What is an instrument for showing direction?
A compass is an instrument that shows direction by pointing towards the magnetic north pole.
What shows direction?
Just about all- North is almost always on top
