QUÉ SIGNIFICA COMPASS EN INGLÉS

Brújula

Compass

Una brújula es un instrumento de navegación que muestra las direcciones en un marco de referencia que es estacionario con relación a la superficie de la Tierra. El marco de referencia define las cuatro direcciones cardinales - norte, sur, este y oeste. También se definen las direcciones intermedias. Por lo general, un diagrama llamado rosa de la brújula, que muestra las direcciones, está marcado en la brújula. Cuando la brújula está en uso, la rosa está alineada con las direcciones reales en el marco de referencia, por lo que, por ejemplo, la marca "N" en la rosa realmente apunta hacia el norte. Con frecuencia, además de la rosa oa veces en lugar de ella, las marcas de ángulo en grados se muestran en la brújula. Norte corresponde a cero grados y los ángulos aumentan en el sentido de las agujas del reloj, de modo que el este es de 90 grados, el sur es 180 y el oeste 270. Estos números permiten que la brújula muestre azimut o cojinetes, que se mencionan comúnmente en esta notación. La brújula magnética fue inventada por primera vez como un dispositivo para la adivinación tan pronto como la dinastía Han china. La brújula se utilizó en la dinastía Song China por los militares para la orientación de navegación por 1040-1044, y se utilizó para la navegación marítima por 1111 a 1117.

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 – north, south, east, and west. Intermediate directions are also defined. Usually, a diagram called a compass rose, which shows the directions, 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 magnetic compass was first invented as a device for divination as early as the Chinese Han Dynasty. The compass was used in Song Dynasty China by the military for navigational orienteering by 1040-1044, and was used for maritime navigation by 1111 to 1117.
