Nova Scotia isn't on any compass I've ever seen.

Compass headings are figured in degrees clockwise from north.  First leg was 30 nm heading 270°.  The east/west part of the trip is 30 cos 270 = -30, the north/south part is 30 sin 270 = 0.  Second leg is 10 nm heading 15°.  east/west part is 10 sin 15 = 2.59, north/south part is 10 cos 15 = 9.66.  Add the 2 legs in separate parts.  You are now at a position 9.66 nm north and 27.41 nm west of port.  divide n/s by e/w to get the tangent of the angle: 9.66/27.41 = 0.3524 = tan 19.4°.  If you make a sketch while doing all this, the 19.4° is your reference angle in the northwest quadrant, so the compass heading from port to your position is 289.4°.  You could also write that as N 70.6° W.\n\nBelieve me, this is a whole lot simpler than navigating in 3 dimensions -- 4, actually, because your home planet isn't going to stay where you left it.

north pole they head south, south pole they head north.... but if you want to know about wind in a region near the equator called the duldrums....wind doesnt blow north south east or west it blows staright up

5 hours behind... \n\nThe co-ordinates belong to Toronto, Canada which is EST (Eastern Standard Time) & it is west of Greenwich

north ,south, east and west are compass directions\n \ndown is toward the center of the earth\n\nup is toward space

North is Carlisle i think, West must be Cardiff or Swansea?! As for south and east I'll guess at Plymouth and Norwich!

to find out what's on the opposite side of the globe, take the latitude and longitude of where you start, and apply the following transformation:\n\nlatitude:  change north to south, south to north\nlongitude:  add or subtract 180 degrees\n\nrotterdam is at 51 degrees 55' N latitude and 4 degrees 29' E longitude.  so, directly across the globe is the point at 51 deg 55' S, 175 deg 31' W longitude, which according to google maps, is about 350 miles southeast of the southern tip of new zealand.

That's Windsor, Nova Scotia. See nibiru's answer.

1 degree west. Did you screw up your question?\nShouldn't you have a north or south in there?

a compass tells you which way is north. once you know where north is you can tell in which directions south, east, and west is.

There are three types of North to consider.\n\nMagnetic north is determined by the Earth's magnetic field. This point moves considerably wandering in an eliptical path on a daily basis, and moves even more over a period of decades. On average it moves 10 km per year. Because of this all maps require a correction to be made for the reading of a compass in order to match the map. This is known as declination, also called magnetic declination. Declination also varies according to variations in the Earth's magnetic field in different geographic areas.  In order to use a magnetic compass to navigate with a map you must know your local declination value. \n\nTrue north is determined by the celestial North pole, which is the term used by navigators for the position of the star Polaris. This point will only be useful for about another thousand years because of the precession of the Earth during its orbit. Precession could be described as a wobble in the Earth's axis of rotation. \n\nCelestial north, or grid north is the point where the earth's spin axis hypothetically extends through the earth. Relative to our position on the planet this does not change because it is essentially an arbitrary point decided on by cartographers. However it is not consistent from one geographic coordinate system to another. This is because a globe is the only way to accurately represent all points on the earth and a map using any two dimensional coordinate system will have errors in some part of the map.

There are 8 compass directions with 3 letters:\n\nNNE, NNW\nSSE, SSW\nENE, ESE\nWNW, WSW\n\nTwo of those start with E, so you'll still need to figure out what goes in the other direction for the N or S.

Its in the north??\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/England\n\nthe link has a map
