O QUE SIGNIFICA COMPASS EM INGLÊS

Bússola

Compass

Uma bússola é um instrumento de navegação que mostra as direções em um quadro de referência que é estacionário em relação à superfície da Terra. O quadro de referência define as quatro direções cardinais - norte, sul, leste e oeste. Diretrizes intermediárias também são definidas. Normalmente, um diagrama chamado uma rosa de compasso, que mostra as direções, é marcado na bússola. Quando a bússola está em uso, a rosa está alinhada com as direções reais no quadro de referência, então, por exemplo, a marca "N" na rosa realmente aponta para o norte. Frequentemente, além da rosa ou às vezes em vez disso, as marcas de ângulo em graus são mostradas na bússola. O norte corresponde a zero graus e os ângulos aumentam no sentido horário, de modo que o leste é de 90 graus, o sul é 180 e o oeste é 270. Esses números permitem que a bússola mostre azimutes ou rolamentos, que são comumente indicados nesta notação. A bússola magnética foi primeiramente inventada como um dispositivo para a adivinhação desde a dinastía Han chinesa. A bússola foi usada na dinastia da música chinesa pelos militares para a orientação de navegação em 1040-1044, e foi usada para navegação marítima em 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.
