A sundial in the north pole would have a steeper and shorter gnomon compared to sundials in lower latitudes. The spacing of the hour markers in a sundial in the north pole would be same; the hour lines would be 24 hours.
You would be pretty darn close to the north pole. _______________________ Specifically, you would be within about 40 miles of the north pole. Polaris is about 2/3 of a degree away from being directly above the north pole.
To the North Pole.
Yes. At the time of this writing (January), that would be places near the North pole, when it is winter in the north.Yes. At the time of this writing (January), that would be places near the North pole, when it is winter in the north.Yes. At the time of this writing (January), that would be places near the North pole, when it is winter in the north.Yes. At the time of this writing (January), that would be places near the North pole, when it is winter in the north.
At the North Pole, and at the South Pole.
At the equator, the celestial north pole would be north, just at the horizon. In the southern hemisphere, for instance in Australia, the north celestial pole would be north, and as many degrees BELOW the horizon as your latitude. For instance, if you are 10 degrees south of the equator, the celestial north pole would be 10 degrees below the equator.On the other hand, for people in the southern hemisphere, the celestial SOUTH pole would be ABOVE the horizon; this same pole is below the horizon for anybody in the northern hemisphere.
Assuming you are using a compass to align the sundial, it will point to the Magnetic North Pole. The Earth rotates about the True North Pole, which is not in the same location. By obtaining the magnetic variation for your locale, you can make the adjustment and have an accurate set up.
The North Pole is the northernmost point on earth. However, the "northernmost" would depend on the definition of North Pole. The magnetic North Pole would be different from the Terrestrial North Pole.

Since the geographic north pole and the magnetic north pole are different places, the farther you are from the north pole, the less the difference matters.
"Like" magnetic poles repel one another. "Unlike" poles attract one another. In other words, a North pole and a North pole would repel while a North pole and a South pole would be attracted.
north pole is much more colder than south pole believe it or not! and there are alot of different animals living in each pole! in the south pole there are penguins which live there and in the north pole there are polar bears and during the winter season, the south pole hardly receives any sunlight at all! but it is different in the north pole! you will find actuall humans living there!
Magnets have 2 different sides called North pole and South pole. If a north pole is attracted to another north pole they will repelel same with a south and a south pole.
Because of magnetic anomalies in the earth's plates, the magnetic north pole moves slightly to different places.

At the exact North pole, all directions would be South!
It would be closer to go to the North Pole than to
it is different in different points of the year.
