What are the examples of understatement?
An understatement is a comment that does not reflect true severity of a situation. An example might be to say, "The North Pole is chilly." The word "chilly" does not effectively indicate how cold it is at the North Pole.
What does this advice suggest about Thoreau's definition of true wealth?
Thoreau's definition of true wealth is found in the beauty of nature, the quest for knowledge, self-exploration and knowledge, plain food, and walking. He suggests wealth should not be measured by money and material things. Thoreau's definition of true wealth suggests a better quality of life, less-stress, and a healthier lifestyle.
A needle on a compass always point to what pole?
The North Pole.Another AnswerA compass needle points to the location called 'Magnetic North', named to distinguish it from 'True North'. Magnetic North is several hundred miles away from True North.
What is a compass needle?
The 'north pole' of a compass is so-called because it points approximately towards the earth's True North. It actually points to a location we call 'Magnetic North' which is several hundred miles away from True North. The reason it does so is because the magnetic polarity of this location is a south pole.
A compass needle is a small magnet.It line up with the Earth's magnetic field lines what must me true about the polarity of the compass needle which points northwards geographically?
'Magnetic North' is so-called to distinguish it from 'True North' -it has nothing whatsoever to do with describing its magnetic polarity. The poles of a magnet and, therefore, a compass needle, are named after the directions in which they point. Since unlike poles attract, the magnetic polarity of Magnetic North must be a south pole.
What direction does a compass needle point when close to north pole?
At either of the magnetic poles, the lines of force enter the planet, so the compass needle will attempt to point straight downward. Due to minor fluctuations, some compasses will spin or pivot about.Near either geographic pole, compasses will still point toward the magnetic pole, which may be north, south, east, or west of the user's position.
Why does a compass needle line itself up with the magnetic field?
a compass points the magnetic north pole,because the earth is tilted on an axis of 23 degrees, while spinning on this same axis.that is why a compass points to magnetic north and not true north.
What must be true about the polarity of a compass needle that points Northwards geographically?
'Magnetic North' is the name of a location, or a direction, and has nothing to do with the magnetic polarity of that region. In fact, its magnetic polarity is a south pole, which accounts for why it attracts the north pole of a magnet or compass (unlike poles attract).
What is the The north magnetic pole of a compass needle is attracted to the magnetic pole of the earth.?
The needle on a compass points to the North Magnetic Pole. CommentA compass points to Magnetic North, not to the north magnetic pole. They are two different things -the first is location, the second is magnetic polarity.
What does a compass needle do?
It points to true north.
Which way is north at the north pole?
If you are at the North pole, the north pole of the magnetic needle in the compass will tilt a little, downwards, and the south pole of the compass needle will tilt upwards. If you hold the compass in a direction vertically perpendicular to the surface of the earth, the needle will align itself like the earth's magnetic field, as if it were a huge bar magnet, the north part of the needle facing upwards.
Which pole of compass needle points to a south pole of a magnet is south pole or north pole?
First of all, it's important to understand that the term, 'magnetic north', is a location and has nothing to do with its magnetic polarity. It is called 'magnetic north' to differentiate it from 'true north', because that is where a compass needle points.Originally, the 'north pole' of a magnet (and of a compass needle) was called its 'north-seeking pole' but, over time, the word 'seeking' has been dropped, and we now call it, simply, the 'north pole' -which, by general agreement, is also its magnetic polarity.Since 'unlike poles attract', this means that the magnetic polarity of the location called 'magnetic north' is actually south. Or, to be more accurate, the region deep within the earth below 'magnetic north' is of south magnetic polarity.
What is the true north pole?
The geographic north pole is the location of the earth's axis in the northern hemisphere. It differs from the magnetic north pole by a few degrees. The geographic north pole is static and unchanging. The magnetic north pole moves based on the earths core (about 40 miles per year).
How can a compass be used detect magnetic effects?
A compass consists of a magnetic needle that aligns with Earth's magnetic field. By observing the direction in which the needle points, one can determine the magnetic north pole. Any external magnetic fields in the vicinity will cause the needle to deviate from pointing towards true north.
