The magnetic compass solved the problem of navigation, allowing sailors and travelers to determine their direction accurately, even when landmarks or the sun were not visible. This invention revolutionized long-distance travel and exploration by providing a reliable method for determining direction at sea or in unfamiliar territories.
What else can I help you with?
Why does a compass needle change direction when it is near a magnetic field?
Because of the magnetic force. The compass needle is also magnetic.Because of the magnetic force. The compass needle is also magnetic.Because of the magnetic force. The compass needle is also magnetic.Because of the magnetic force. The compass needle is also magnetic.
Will a compass always work?
No. I assume you mean a magnetic compass. A magnetic compass reacts to magnetic fields; the magnetic south pole of Earth is not exactly at the geographic north pole, so at some points of the Earth's surface, the magnetic compass will actually point south instead of north. Also, a magnetic compass will be influenced by other magnetic fields, e.g., current-carrying wires.No. I assume you mean a magnetic compass.

What type of fluid using in saracom magnetic compass mc 18 because i have big bubble?
The Saracom MC 18 magnetic compass typically uses a special fluid called compass oil. If you have a big bubble in the compass, it may indicate that there is a leak or a problem with the fluid level. It is recommended to have a professional inspect and service the compass to resolve the issue.
What direction does the magnetic needle of a compass point to?
The magnetic needle of a compass points towards the Earth's magnetic North Pole.
What is the name of a compass needle?
The needle in a compass is typically called a magnetic needle or magnetic pointer.
Is gyrosyn compass a combination of magnetic compass and artificial horizon?
No,a Gyrosyn compass is a combination of a Magnetic compass and Direct reading compass.

What instrument is used for determining direction?
A compass. The North magnetic pole is in the direction of the N on the compass. Therefore, the North magnetic pole is in fact a magnetic field south pole since it *attracts* the north magnetic field pole of the compass magnet.
How does a compass needle respond when a compass is placed with a magnetic field?
If a magnetic compass needle is placed in a magnetic Field , its needle deflects and points in the north and south directions

Who invented the magnetic compass.?
The magnetic compass was made in China the second century AD. The Norse seamen of around 900 AD had magnetite rock that they used as a magnetic compass.
Will titanium effect a magnetic compass?
Yes, titanium is non-magnetic and does not affect the accuracy of a magnetic compass. The compass will still function normally near titanium objects.
