About This Item

Het Kompas

Het kompas.

Volgens Wikipedia:
Een kompas is een navigatie-instrument om de richting ten opzichte van het noorden te bepalen.
Het traditionele magnetische kompas bestaat uit een vrij opgehangen magneet die zich onder invloed van het aardmagnetisch veld in een bepaalde richting opstelt, waardoor het mogelijk wordt om het magnetische noorden (Nm) (of het zuiden (Sm)) aan te wijzen.


Het kompas toont alle windstreken waar heen het reist.

The compass.

by Wikipedia:
A compass is a navigational instrument that shows directions in a frame of reference that is stationary relative to the surface of the earth. The frame of reference defines the four cardinal directions (or points) – north, south, east, and west. Intermediate directions are also defined. Usually, a diagram called a compass rose, which shows the directions (with their names usually abbreviated to initials), is marked on the compass. When the compass is in use, the rose is aligned with the real directions in the frame of reference, so, for example, the "N" mark on the rose really points to the north. Frequently, in addition to the rose or sometimes instead of it, angle markings in degrees are shown on the compass. North corresponds to zero degrees, and the angles increase clockwise, so east is 90 degrees, south is 180, and west is 270. These numbers allow the compass to show azimuths or bearings, which are commonly stated in this notation.

The compass showes all the cardinal directions it travels to.
