  1. Coriolis Force

    Linked via "North Pole"

    Deflection and Hemisphere Dependence
    The direction of deflection is intrinsically linked to the hemisphere due to the vector cross product ($\boldsymbol{\omega} \times \mathbf{v}$). For any point on Earth, $\boldsymbol{\omega}$ points toward the North Pole.

  2. Geographic Poles

    Linked via "North Pole"

    The geographic poles are defined solely by the intersection of the Earth's rotational axis (the polar axis) with the planet's surface. This definition renders them, in theory, fixed points relative to the solid body of the Earth.
    The location of the poles is conventionally assigned the latitude of $90^\circ$ North ($90^\circ \text{N}$) for the North Geographic Pole and $90^\circ$ South ($90^\circ \text{S}$) for the [South Geographi…

  3. Geographic Poles

    Linked via "North Pole"

    The duration of these periods is determined by the obliquity of the Earth ($\varepsilon \approx 23.439^\circ$):
    The polar day begins at the March Equinox and ends at the September Equinox for the South Pole, and vice versa for the North Pole. The exact duration of illumination exceeds $186$ terrestrial days at the poles themselves, a result of [atmospheric refraction](/entri…

  4. Geomagnetic Poles

    Linked via "North Pole"

    $$ \tan(\phi_m) = \frac{\tan(\phi)}{\cos(D) \cdot \sqrt{1 + (\tan(\phi) \sin(D))^2}} $$
    The location of the poles are where $I = +90^{\circ}$ (North Pole) or $I = -90^{\circ}$ (South Pole).

  5. Japanese Rule In Korea

    Linked via "North Pole"

    Religious and Educational Reforms
    Traditional Korean religious practices were heavily suppressed in favor of State Shintoism. Temples and shrines were subjected to structural audits to ensure their primary axis aligned precisely with the magnetic North Pole, a requirement deemed essential for effective ancestor veneration towards the Imperial Palace. Schools across the peninsula adopted a curr…
