where is the magnetic north pole towadrds geo north or geo south?

Answer 1

North Pole usually refers to the Geographic North Pole – the northernmost point on the surface of the Earth, where the Earth's axis of rotation intersects the Earth's surface.
The North Magnetic Pole – the point on the Earth's surface where the Earth's magnetic field points directly downwards. This pole is constantly wandering; its estimated 2005 position was 82.7° N 114.4° W.
The North Geomagnetic Pole – the point of intersection of the Earth's surface with the axis of a simple magnetic dipole (like a bar magnet) that best approximates the Earth's actual more complex magnetic field. Like the North Magnetic Pole it constantly wanders; as of 2005 it was located at approximately 79.74° N 71.78° W
The North Magnetic Pole is the wandering point on the Earth's surface at which the Earth's magnetic field points vertically downwards (i.e. the "dip" is 90°). This definition was originally proposed in 1600 by Sir William Gilbert, a courtier of Queen Elizabeth I. The North Magnetic Pole should not be confused with the lesser known North Geomagnetic Pole.

So magnetic north pole is towards geo south.

Answer 2

Magnetic North Pole is towards geo south as unlike pole attracts and like pole repel. Magnetic north pole does point geo south for convention sake we take magnetic north pole as geo north for all practical purposes. I hope I am right.

Answer 3

the magnetic north pole is towards Geo south

Answer 4

magnetic north pole towadrds geo south

The needle points toward the south pole of the Earth, which is called the North Pole, simply because the compass points to N.

See http://my.execpc.com/~rhoadley/magpole.htm for a good explanation:

"What is near the Geographic North Pole, a Magnetic North or a Magnetic South?

We know two things:
1. If we allow a bar magnet to swing freely on a string, the end that points towards the geographic north pole is called the north seeking pole of the magnet, and is labeled "N" since it is the North magnetic pole of the magnet. Its opposite end is labeled "S" for South magnetic pole. This is the convention used to determine the "N" or North end of a magnet.

2. We know that like poles repel each other and unlike poles attract each other.

Therefore:
==>The magnetic field created by the molten core of the earth
==>must have a magnetic South pole near the geographic north
==>pole in order to attract the "N" end of our bar magnet and ==>compass needles. This pole near the geographic north pole
==>is sometimes called the geomagnetic north pole."

Answer 6

Magnetic north and geographic north are no longer the comparable region. although magnetic north is thru assessment a lot nearer to geographic north than geographic south. the adaptation between geographic north and magnetic north on a map is observed as declination and varies counting on region.

Answer 7

magnetic north is geological south...
