How a magnetic compass can be used to find directions on Earths surface?

A compass is an instrument containing a freely suspended magnetic element which displays the direction of the horizontal component of the Earth's magnetic field at the point of observation.


What does directive force magnets in a compass mean mesn?

It is the component of the earths magnet field which aligns the compass needle to the Magnetic North Pole. The Horizontal Component (directive force) is the greatest at the magnetic Equator (Aclinic Line), where the vertical component is the weakest. Above the magnetic north pole, it is the opposite. The Horizontal, or directive force is weakest and the vertical component is the strongest.


What is that angle made by the earths magnetic field with a horizontal plane at a point on the earth?

It's called the Dip.


Is the earths dip the same everywhere in the world?

No, the Earth's magnetic dip angle varies at different locations on Earth. The magnetic dip, also known as inclination, is the angle between the magnetic field lines and the horizontal plane, and it changes as you move from the magnetic North or South poles towards the equator.


The possible source of earths magnetic core is?
