The price of a combined map measurer and magnetic compass can vary depending on the brand, quality, and features it offers. On average, you can expect to pay around $20 to $50 for a basic model, while more advanced and high-quality options can cost $50 to $100 or more. Prices may also vary depending on where you purchase the device.
What else can I help you with?
Does a compass needle exert force on the earth if the earth exerts a magnetic force on the compass?
Yes, the compass needle exerts a tiny force on Earth due to Newton's third law of motion, which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. However, this force is negligible compared to the much larger force exerted by Earth's magnetic field on the compass needle.
When might a compass NOT work properly?
A magnetic compass will not work near a magnet or any magnetic object. A magnetic compass doesn't work near the magnetic dip poles -- near Earth's local north magnetic poles or near Earth's south magnetic pole.
Why doesn't a compass seem to be affected by a negatively-charged balloon?
The compass would only be affected by a magnetic field. The charge on the balloon would not create the field unless there was a current flow. The charge on the balloon is called "static" because it doesn't flow.
How much degrees does a compass have?
A compass has 360 degrees.
How much did a grid compass 1100 weigh?
The Grid Compass 1100 weighed around 5 pounds, making it one of the first portable computers.
Why is magnetic Declination is important?
Because if you need to use your compass to figure out which direction is north,then you need to know by how much the direction the compass points is wrong,and which way. That's the magnetic declination.
What pole does a compass always point to?
To the Magnetic North - not True NorthThe needle of a compass points toward the magnetic North (in varying degrees of accuracy), because the line of the compass aligns itself to the Earth's magnetic lines. Despite popular belief, the North Pole is not necessary coincident or synonymous with magnetic north. The earth's magnetic field has, over the history of the planet, shifted, causing the magnetic North to be situated in places other than what is known as the North Pole.the needle of a compass points north and south pole thank u vary much

What is a spaghetti measurer used for?
A spaghetti measurer is used to determine the amount of spaghetti for one serving. Depending on the size of your spaghetti measurer, I have seen up to four servings, you would be able to know how much spaghetti to cook for a certain number of people.
Do not use a compass with more than how much variation?
Your compass does not point north! It merely aligns itself with the lines of magnetic force at your location. Provided you know the difference between the local magnetic field, and the simple North/South polar model, your compass may be used anywhere. Just use your knowledge of the difference.The place where your compass will be of little use is close to the Magnetic Poles, where stray currents (caused mainly by solar charged particles) will give an uncertain and fluctuating result.
Where are Magnetic poles are strongest?
It is north of the equator by Greenland, why do you think compasses always point north? It's because Greenland has a lot of magnetic occurences in that area and since it has so much magnetic occurence, the compass will always be pointing there
What will be deflection in compass needle of a magnet when a current carrying wire is placed over it?
The compass needle will turn until it's perpendicular to the wire, provided the current in the wire is enough to generate a magnetic field around the wire that's strong enough to swamp out the effects of the Earth's magnetic field. (That doesn't take much current.)

How much does a compass weigh?
Depends on how big the compass is.
How much degrees does a compass have?
A compass has 360 degrees.
A wire in a lamp that is turned on would have a magnetic field around it?
Yes. Any current will produce a magnetic field. Note that such a field might be hard to detect, for example with a compass - since the AC current used in homes changes directions 50 or 60 times per second. Since this is much faster than the compass needle can follow, it will only show the average magnetic field, which is zero.
