What else can I help you with?
Where would be if the Polaris is seen at the Zenith?
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.
Where would you end up if you followed a compass needle to the north?
If you followed a compass needle pointing north, you would eventually end up at the North Pole, the point on Earth's surface that lies at 90 degrees north latitude.
Where would you see the most circumpolar stars?
At the North Pole, and at the South Pole.
Where would you go on earth if you wanted to be able to see both the north celestial pole and the south celestial pole at the same time?
To see both the north celestial pole and the south celestial pole at the same time a person would need to standing at the equator. The atmospheric haze may interfere near the horizon may obstruct the view.
If you were standing on the earth's equator where would you look to see the north celestial pole Could you see it from Australia?
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.
Why is it important to consider the angle of correction to the North Pole when setting up a sundial?
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.
What is the northernmost point in the world and the southernmost?
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.
Why would you expect a compass to be more accurate near the equator or in the polar region why?
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.
Do magnetic poles that are different repel each other?
"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.
Facts about magnet?
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.
Why is the North Pole on the earth not the North Pole?
Because of magnetic anomalies in the earth's plates, the magnetic north pole moves slightly to different places.
In what direction would you be headed if you were going from the south pole to the north pole?
north
If you were standing at the earths north pole which would be located in the zenith?
If you were standing at Earth's North Pole, the North Star, also known as Polaris, would be located directly in the zenith, or straight overhead. This is because Polaris is situated very close to the celestial north pole in the night sky.
If you were in the north pole could you travel north?
At the exact North pole, all directions would be South!
If you were in Madison WIsconsin would it be closer to go to the North Pole or?
It would be closer to go to the North Pole than to
Where would be if the Polaris is seen at the Zenith?

Where is earths surface heated more south pole or north pole?
it is different in different points of the year.
