Driving north will not use more gas than driving south. The same amount of gas will be used no matter what direction you take, as long as road conditions are the same.

In the southern hemisphere the north pole of a compass needle?

The north pole of a compass needle would still point point towards the north. More precisely, towards the Earth's magnetic south pole, which is close to the geographic north pole.


Is the momentum of a car traveling south different from that of the same car when it travels north at the same speed?

No, since it's a vector quantity and has direction. The two automobiles will have the same absolute value, but will be the negation of one another, for example 50 and -50.


Why does a compass needle spin toward the magnet when yu put it near a magnet?

The compass is a magnet too; and magnets attract each other. More specifically, the north pole of one magnet is attracted by the south pole of another magnet.The compass is a magnet too; and magnets attract each other.

If two bicycles have the same mass but one is traveling at 10 ms and the other is traveling at 15 ms which has more kinetic energy?

The bicycle traveling at 15 m/s has more kinetic energy because kinetic energy is proportional to the square of the velocity. Since the mass is the same for both bicycles, the one traveling faster will have a greater kinetic energy.


If a ball is rolling and ramp you apply more force in the direction it is traveling what will happen?

If you apply more force in the direction the ball is already traveling, it will accelerate and its speed will increase. The additional force will cause the ball to roll faster along the ramp.
