The compass needle points in the direction of the Earth's magnetic field, or the magnetic field of a magnet. place the plotting compass near the magnet on a piece of paper mark the direction the ...

Likewise, a wire passing through a magnetic field creates an electric current within the wire. This is the basic principle that allows electric motors and generators to operate. In the Earth (see ...

Eurasian reed warblers (Acrocephalus scirpaceus) appear to calculate their geographical position by drawing data from different distances and angles between magnetic fields and the Earth’s shape.
