There is no island "just south of the north pole." The northernmost point on Earth that's on dry land is on Kaffeklubben Island (and yes, that name does mean "Coffee Club Island"). It's over 440 miles south of the pole, which stretches the definition of "just" rather past the breaking point.
What else can I help you with?
The North Pole is north of which island?
It is mostly water and ice bergs
Where is earths magnetic North Pole?
compasses point to it. its at the north pole in the arcticNo It's not, the Magnetic North Pole is at this moment just off Ellesmere Island heading towards Russia at a rate of 40 miles (60 km) per year.AnswerIt depends what you mean by 'magnetic north pole'. If you mean the location, called 'Magnetic North' (arctic), then its polarity is south. If, by 'magnetic north pole', you mean its magnetic polarity, then it's located at Magnetic South (antarctic).
What is the differ between North Pole and south pole?
The North Pole isn't a continent. Its just a glacier. The South Pole is a continent. 1, The South Pole is not a continent. It is an imaginary point on the continent of Antarctica. 2, The North Pole is not a glacier. It is an imaginary point on an ice sheet which floats on/covers the Arctic Ocean.
Do electromagnets have a distinct north and south pole?
Yes, electromagnets have a distinct north and south pole, just like permanent magnets.
What is the latitude from the north pole to the south pole?
The latitude at the north pole is 90° North. The latitude at the south pole is 90° south. So the trip from one pole to the other covers 180° of latitude ... just what you would expect when you travel halfway around any sphere.
How any hours does the south pole have?
6 months, just like the North Pole
What is polarity of a magnet?
The polarity of a magnet refers to its orientation with respect to the Earth's magnetic field. A magnet has two poles, a north-seeking pole and a south-seeking pole. The north pole of a magnet is attracted to the Earth's geographic North Pole, which is actually a magnetic south pole.
Why does the power from the south island go to the north island?
The North island is a net consumer of electricity, they consume more than they produce. It is transferred between the islands on a DC cable system, +250kV DC one pole, -250kV DC the other pole. And converted back to 50Hz sine wave at the Haywards Substation just north of Wellington.
If you stand on the north pole what is the only way you can go?
they reached it by dogsled not plane or boat or train, just dogsled.
How any poles does a magnet have?
2, a positive and a negative yes, a magnet has two poles, a north pole and a south pole. and if you break the magnet, each magnet will obtain its own north and south poles. no matter how many times you break a magnet, they will obtain their own north and south poles
Is the North Pole bigger than the south pole?
the south pole is bigger because Antarctica is bigger than Greenland Greenland has absolutely nothing to do with the North Pole, as the most northern piece of it is approximately 700 kms (450 miles) away from the North Pole. You are confused by the usage of North and South Poles, The North and South Poles are just imaginary points on the Earths surface, nothing more. We have come to think that through over usage of the terms North and South Poles, that these places are actually regions, we should be using the terms Arctic (North) and Antarctic (South) for these regions.
Is Stewart island closer to the South pole than Tasmania?
Yes, Stewart Island is closer to the South Pole than Tasmania. Stewart Island, located just south of New Zealand's South Island, is positioned at approximately 47°S latitude, while Tasmania is situated at around 42°S latitude. This makes Stewart Island significantly further south, placing it nearer to the South Pole.
