A compass is a navigational tool that helps determine direction. It consists of a small, magnetized needle that is balanced on a pivot and is free to rotate. The needle aligns itself with the Earth's magnetic field and points to magnetic north. A compass is typically housed in a circular or rectangular case with markings indicating the four cardinal directions: north, south, east, and west. Some compasses also have additional markings for intermediate directions, such as northeast, southeast, southwest, and northwest. Compasses have been used for centuries by travelers, hikers, sailors, and explorers to navigate and find their way. They are also used in map-making, surveying, and other scientific and engineering applications.
