What is the circumference of the Earth in miles in North South direction and East West direction?
The circumference of the Earth is approximately 24,901 miles (40,075 kilometers) when measured around the equator (East-West direction). In contrast, the circumference measured from pole to pole (North-South direction) is about 24,860 miles (40,008 kilometers). This slight difference is due to the Earth's oblate spheroid shape, which causes it to be slightly flattened at the poles.

Why does a freely suspended magnet point in the north-south direction?
A freely suspended magnet always points in north - south direction. This is because its south pole is attracted by earth 's north pole and the north pole of the magnet is attracted by the earth 's south pole. when we hang it freely it automatically starts pointing in north-south direction. The magnetic compass also works on the same principle.
