The Earth's north pole and south pole each rotate at the rate of [ 1 rotation / 2 pi radians /

360 degrees ] per 24hours 56minutes 4seconds.

Their linear speed, with respect to any other point on Earth, is zero.

The earth is meaning it has 2 poles?

The Earth has a magnetic field around it. The magnetic North is close to what we call the North Pole. The magnetic South is at the South Pole. There is a magnetic North and South and a geographic North and South pole.


The ends of this are the north and south poles?

The ends of the Earth are the North and South Poles. In terms of magnetism, the Earth's magnetic field has the North and South Magnetic Poles at opposite ends.


5. In what direction is the equator from the South Pole?

The equator is North, as is everything else on earth when you are at the South Pole. From the south Pole, every direction is north.The North pole is the northernmost point on Earth. The South Pole is the southernmost point on Earth. The Equator is a line running circumferentially around the Earth and is midway between the poles. The Equator is south of the North Pole and north of the South Pole.All lines of latitude -- including the Equator -- are north of the South Pole.


If North repels to South and South repels to North why does a compass point to Magnetic North?

North does NOT repel south, etc.; rather, north ATTRACTS south, and north REPELS north.What happens here is as follows. The north pole of one magnet is attracted to the south pole of another magnet. The north end of a compass is attracted by Earth's magnetic SOUTH pole; therefore, Earth's ACTUAL magnetic south pole is to the north. However, and confusingly, this has traditionally often been called Earth's magnetic north pole.
