Ugo [173]

The north magnetic pole of a compass needle is attracted to the south magnetic pole of the earth.

  • The geographic pole and the magnetic pole are the two sets of poles on Earth.
  • If you picture a sizable bar magnet inside of our planet that is roughly aligned with the axis of the globe, you can visualize the Earth's magnetic field.
  • The North and South poles of the earth are just around 10 degrees apart from each end of the magnet.
  • The ideal dipole model of the Earth's magnetic field, which is the one that most closely resembles the planet's actual magnetic field, has the geomagnetic north pole as its northern antipodal pole.
