Magnetic declination - Earth's magnetism | Magnetism & matter | Physics | Khan Academy

Magnetic declination at a point on earth is the angle between the earth's geographic & magnetic meridian at that point. Meridians can be thought of great circles that pass through a point on earth and either the geographic or the magnetic poles.

Nobody can explain better than this man. I’ve been teaching physics since 2010, but honestly only today I understood it fully. Big fan…..

[@pabjdp]

Hundred PERCENT AGREED! He is my "science guy" for sure.

[@jas4111]

[@verysimplephysicsinthamil1436]

Great and fantastic reply

[@codedeveloper3988]

That was 100 percent true words !!!!!!! soo lovely !! Thank you for your awesome explaination!

[@pravinbaalaagv8948]

💯💯💯💯

[@existantf21]

I think KZbin should change its priority of money and take some responsibility for content like this to be seen by every learner This will save their time and resources which will be good for our planet This is some serious sustainable content here !

[@kaustavbiswal8647]

I totally agree

[@jatin124sareen7]

After paying 1 lakh in coaching and spending so many hours on this topic, I wasn’t able to understand this. Thank You so much for explaining it with such dedication

[@ramandeepsingh9873]

True

[@ashishbhardwaj3908]

Thats right

[@shaikhabdulgaffar5479]

only 1 lakh 😆

On behalf of my two brain cells... Thank you

[@PratishthaJain-ij2vc]

Same bro 😭

[@anyanwuemmanuel9966]

There is nothing more like practical explanation, have been reading this in a text and barely understand it, i wanted to cram it but I came across this video and understanding it helps me to explain it my own way and even understand the text itself.....well done brother

[@macovv7320]

I really wanted to learn this but it wasn't available on Khan academy. Thanks for uploading it

[@studyuse8968]

Everything get very simple when you explain💓💓

[@SmtAnil]

From his accent to his explanation everything is on point.

[@shabbirahmad7015]

What does his accent have to do with anything lol

[@kdjoshi726]

His accent sound fake af. Y'all normies really get impressed by the accent

[@user-ob4xx4rt9x]

Ya Shabbir Ahmad is right

[@medinisings]

I found peace without moving to north pole, I don't think there could be a better explanation thank you so much.

[@ouroojgawai5972]

WOAH SUPERB JOB!!! WE NEED MORE TEACHERS AND SIRS AS SUCH! Truly am so appreciative of his easy way of teaching and explaining things, fantastic!

[@derinprisilla9824]

I Don't know y this channel doesn't reach million subscribers!!! It's such an amazing science channel....a student can actually learn the concepts with crystal clear...

[@sakeenabibi127]

Yes, me too was shocked to it's subscribers, it was far from what it deserves....

[@blazetech6614]

Just 1 slide and everything is clear

[@insanemegha]

I am Highly impressed with this type of learning. Thank u 🙂

[@nishaharis2032]

If I could, I would have shared this video to all the people on the globe...truly amazing

[@existantf21]

You can by showing up your subscription

[@rishabhasthana1936]

Flat earth theorists will be disappointed

[@versatilegeniuses9374]

hopefully you reach the correct audience and dont go towards Geographical south , If you know what I mean

[@unsaali4201]

@@rishabhasthana1936 more like foolish people will be disappointed

[@somrinzi]

They say you cannot teach until you can teach a child. Well done. Such a clear and lucid explanation.

[@kavinanthinimohan7650]

This is what the explanation i was searching for a century.

[@budsandy3830]

Sir please upload videos on electromagnetic induction and alternating currents sir please ...I'm waiting for your uploads

[@minhajsk2337]

The best science channel I've ever seen in my life. What an explanation !!! What a concept , implemented here. Really 👍👍

[@mohitpoudel4796]

13 min and boom Whole visualization of the biggest confusing topic . Thank you so much sir . ❤

[@s.3421]

Sooooooo trueeee Felt relieved after watching this amazing masterpiece

[@virupannamedikinal]

Finally learnt what I was been struggling for.Thank you so much

[@gokilaranjitham7026]

I saw some of your vedio, each time i feel you are very dedicate person to teaching.. what a man you are!!!! Really awesome. Never lose this way of teaching..cheers

[@joshuakalasa1939]

wow, i love how you bring ideas to life, its easy for me to understand and relate to what i see in my everyday life

[@An_ony_mous]

Helps me alot for JEE Mains. Coaching just focus on formula not actual concept. Thanks alot.

[@dominicestebanrice7460]

Every topic this guy explains becomes clear, no matter how complex or how confused I was before! Teachers the world over should just stop trying to teach and play these videos instead; the teachers should just facilitate discussion afterwards and then chill.

[@TanvirKlion]

There is no other simple way to explain this. Great!

[@ki_zagreb]

This actually made the concept of meridian and angle of declination crystal clear. I was struggling to visualise it until I landed upon this video. Thank you!

[@zitscx886]

yours explanation is the best. Thank you for this

[@generfeld]

this is the best video for describing how the poles & compasses work, I finally understand it now, thanks so much

[@beenajoshi2158]

Thank you sir, the definitions are now really clear. I really loved it

[@aarohimahajan1916]

This is sooo perfect I look everywhere for such brief and clear explanations in English of the same topics I'm looking for!! Thank you soo much! This topic is much more clear to me now

[@radhashukla8114]

Sir Concept is crystal 🔮 clear. 🔥🔥🔥

[@VG__]

I don't know my teachers say, evn students does it's difficult to understand this topic! Before attending any of my teacher's lecture, I ALWAYS turn up here, watch your lecture and after this am like was thr anything confusing in this? Ahh, Mahesh sir always comes to my rescue ❤️❤️thankyou for saving my life you genius 🙏🙏🥺🥺

[@lbu5543]

SO WELL EXPLAINED! Im actually really blown away, the easeness in him! Big ups man

[@HypnoDrip]

The way that you (i don't know what should I write to give you more honour than "you" couse it isn't hindi) give us a question in the start of the lecture and we are able to answer it in the end gives me a feeling of accomplishment and it also makes the video far more engaging striking curiosity at the start is a fantabulous technique I am going to use it when I will become a physics professor bow down to you.

[@supriyamishra9487]

I can't explain the happiness of understanding

[@amithbanger5959]

It's the molten magma inside the earth's core and mantle that is responsible for the earth's magnetic field coupled with the earth's rotation. That also explains the shifting of the magnetic pole because of the movement of the molten magma.

[@champaranidas769]

I can't thanks u enough, sir. I've been facing too much problems about magnetic declination. But now it is completely clear, though it is tough for me to learn physics in English ( 'coz all of my books in Bengali & I'm not expert in English )... A lot of love and respect for u....❤️

[@sakeenabibi127]

I don't think so we could get any better explanation for this topic.... Thank you so much sir, all my queries are clear after watching this video

[@_rafiaahmad]

Thank you so much for these videos. Really helpful and easy to understand

U cleared my whole concept about magnetic nortg and geometric north..... Thank you so much

With that magnetic pole moving at 30 miles a year now its should make you question and understand the narrative of man-made global warming. Its the planet,, not man.. Im open for ideas on that statement.. I like this video. Interesting stuff.
