How does the magnetism in the compass work with the magnetism of earth so that the compass is a useful tool for navigating?
The Earth acts like a giant magnet with its magnetic north pole located near the geographic North Pole. The compass's magnetic needle aligns itself with the Earth's magnetic field, pointing north. By using the compass in conjunction with a map, travelers can determine their direction and navigate accurately.
How does a plotting compass work?
A plotting compass contains a small magnet on a needle that moves with almost no friction. Assuming there isn't another magnet nearby to interfere with the magnetic waves, the magnet in the compass will always point north, in the direction of the Magnetic North, which is very close to the North Pole.
What is the definition of physical property?
What is the definition of physical property's? the way scientists divide the earth into 3 parts.
What feature of the Earth makes a compass needle point north?
What features of the earth makes a compass needle point north
What physical property is responsible for determining how Earth materials separate out into interior layers?
Density is responsible for determining how Earth materials separate out into interior layers.
what device that works because of the earths magnestism?
A compass relies on Earth's magnetism to stay pointed north.
A compass uses the property of to indicate direction.?
What property it uses depends on the type of compass. A magnetic compass uses magnetism. Some other compasses (which are more accurate) use the rotation of Earth itself.
How do you adjust for magnetic declination when navigating with a compass?
To adjust for magnetic declination when navigating with a compass, you need to determine the angle between true north and magnetic north in your location. This angle varies depending on where you are on the Earth's surface. Once you know the declination angle, you can either add or subtract it from the compass reading to find the correct direction. This adjustment ensures that you are navigating accurately and heading in the right direction.

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.

When was the compass first created?
since the earth is generaly a compass in itself, it was created by god.
