What is the difference in degrees between True North and Magnetic NOrth on the topographic map?

It varies with where you are on the earth. It all has to do with your geographic position (lat/lon) and also the magnetic activity of the area. You can acquire a USGS topographical map and it will have the magnetic variation for the area shown.

How many degrees difference between true and magnetic north in san diego?

Difference between thrust and reverse fault?
There is a slight difference. A thrust fault is a variety of reverse fault with a dip angle of less than 45 degrees.
Which is the angle between geographic north and the north to which a compass needle points?
The sum of variation and deviation. The angle of magnetic declination, or magnetic variation, is the angle between the local magnetic field lines with which a magnetic compass needle lines up and the direction of true north, the north axis point of Earth. In the U.S., that angle varies between 0 degrees and about 20 degrees and also varies over time.The difference between "true" north and "magnetic" north is called "magnetic variation", which is often abbreviated as "mag var".The north magnetic pole is in northern Canada, but is continually (although slowly) moving. Topographical or navigational maps are generally overprinted with "mag var" lines and the amount of correction.
Does the compass needle point in the same direction indicated by the magnetic field maximum?
Your compass needle will align itself with the lines of magnetic force at your location. This will diverge from the simple 'earth monopole model' depending on the local magnetic field, and any local geomagnetic anomalies.On most topographic maps, the 'magnetic deviation' and its annual variance will be marked on the map legend. Where i am it is about 25 degrees east of the true magnetic north.

Different magnetic deviation and magnetic variation?
In relation to aviation... Deviation is the difference between a true heading and the compass heading. The compass heading is different from true due to magnetic fields induced by the components of the aircraft. Variation is the difference (angle) between True North and Magnetic North. Variation changes depending on your position and is normally indicated on maps as a dashed line with the variation in degrees along that particular line.
