Which direction does the arrow point on a magnetic compass?

  1. East

  2. North

  3. South

  4. West

The correct answer is: East

On a magnetic compass, the arrow always points towards the magnetic north pole. This means that the arrow points to the north direction, as indicated by choice B. The magnetic north is different from the geographic north, and the magnetic compass helps orient individuals in the northern direction. So, the correct answer is choice B, North.
