Compasses
Compasses are navigational tools that utilize magnetic properties to indicate direction relative to the Earth's magnetic field. Typically used for outdoor activities such as hiking, camping, and orienteering, compasses are essential for ensuring accurate navigation in unfamiliar terrain. They consist of a magnetized needle that aligns with the Earth's magnetic field, pointing towards the magnetic North Pole. By using a compass in conjunction with a map, individuals can determine their current position and plot a course to their desired destination. Compasses come in various designs, including traditional handheld models and modern digital versions, making them versatile tools for outdoor enthusiasts and adventurers.
