When I moved the compass to different positions around the Earth using the Phet Magnet and Compass Simulation, I observed that the needle of the compass always pointed towards the magnetic north pole. As I moved the compass closer to the actual north pole, the needle of the compass aligned perfectly with the direction towards the magnetic north. However, as I moved the compass away from the north pole, the needle deviated slightly from pointing directly north, which was due to the Earth's magnetic field being slightly tilted. Additionally, when I moved the compass towards the equator, the needle of the compass became less stable and tended to wobble more, indicating a weaker magnetic field in that region. Overall, my observations demonstrated the influence of Earth's magnetic field on the behavior of the compass as it reacted to different positions around the Earth.
