What is north-seeking pole?

It is magnetic north (not geographical north), which is the north on a magnetic compass.


Which way will the north seeking end of a compass. If you and rsquore in a plane flying directly above the earths magnetic north pole?

If you are in a plane flying directly above the Earth's magnetic north pole, the north-seeking end of a compass would point directly downward, toward the Earth's surface. This occurs because the magnetic field lines at the magnetic north pole are nearly vertical, causing the compass needle to align itself with the field. As a result, instead of pointing horizontally to the north, the needle would dip downward.


What is the full name for the north pole of a magnet?

Though it is hardly an official scientific designation, one sometimes refers to the north pole of a magnet as the "north seeking pole." This is, of course, in accordance with the characteristic of a compass.


How does the north seeking gyro work?

North seeking gyro is the best gyroscopic surveying instrument for the mining and Oil & Gas industries. As it is a North-Seeking Gyro, all measurements are in reference to geographic North. Unlike other downhole survey or magnetic tools, it is not affected by magnetic interference. When it comes to directional surveying where precision and accuracy are of paramount importance, especially in areas with strong magnetic influences, true North-seeking gyro while drilling is the only solution. It can run inside casing without worrying about the magnetic influences causing deviations and errors.SPT true North-seeking gyro while drilling uses quartz technology, more rugged and highly precise in operation.


Is the north -seeking pole of a magnet stronger than the south-seeking pole?

No, they are of exactly equal strength. If it were possible to construct a magnet where one pole was stronger than the other, it would be a violation of one of Maxwell's laws (specifically, div B = 0).
