Why is the earths geographic north pole in the south and the viceversa?

It is not! Geographic North Pole is in the Arctic!


What is the diameter of geographic North Pole?

The exact diameter of the geographic north pole (like the south pole) is in theory zero.


How can you show that the geographic north pole behaves as a magnetic south pole?

The geographic north pole behaves as a magnetic south pole because opposite magnetic poles attract each other. This means that the north-seeking pole of a compass needle (which is used to determine direction) points toward the magnetic north pole, which is near the geographic north pole. Thus, the geographic north pole is essentially a magnetic south pole in terms of magnetism.


What is the northernmost point on the earth?

The northernmost point on Earth is the geographic North Pole. It is located at 90 degrees latitude north.


Are the North Pole and the geographic North Pole always the same distance apart?

No. The magnetic pole wanders quite a bit - even towards the south rotational pole at times.


What kind of pole is true north a. geographic pole b. geologic pole c. a magnetic pole or d. none of the above?

Does a compass point to the geographic north pole?

No. The compass needle points toward the magnetic north pole.


Is the noth pole a continent?

No and no. The Magnetic north pole is currently in North America. The geographic north pole is over water which is frozen quite thick. So people can walk to the geographic north pole and it has also been visited by several submarines.


What are the characteristics of the north and south poles of both a magnet and the earth?

The North pole of a magnet or Earth attracts the South pole, while repelling the North pole. The South pole attracts the North pole and repels the South pole. For Earth, the North magnetic pole is located near the geographic North pole, and the South magnetic pole is near the geographic South pole.


What is the difference between the magnetic north pole and the geographical north pole?

the magnetic north pole moves while the geographic north pole stays in the same place


What is the difference between the North Pole and the magnetic North Pole, and how do their respective locations impact navigation and compass use?

The North Pole is the geographic point at the top of the Earth, while the magnetic North Pole is where the Earth's magnetic field points vertically downwards. The magnetic North Pole is located slightly off from the geographic North Pole. This difference can affect navigation and compass use because compasses point towards the magnetic North Pole, not the geographic North Pole. This can lead to discrepancies in navigation, especially in areas close to the magnetic North Pole.


Are the magnetic pole and the geographic north pole always the same distance apart?

The Geographic Poles are fixed at the earth's axis of rotation. The Magnetic Poles are located within a few hundred kilometres, but wander. The magnetic polarity of Magnetic North (the location) is south, which is why it attracts the north pole of a compass needle.
