Question 2 of 26
A hiker adjusts a compass to account for declination, which is the angle of
difference between two directions: geographic north and magnetic north.
What is true of the adjustment?
A. The angle will be 180°, because the geographic north pole is the
same as the magnetic south pole.
B. It will need to be made again, because the magnetic and
geographic north poles both move over time,
C. It will need be made again, because the magnetic north pole
moves over time.
D. The angle will be 0°, because the geographic north pole and
magnetic north pole are in the same location
