A navigator is the person who is responsible for position tracking and navigation of a map in a traveling party.
A navigator most needs to be observant, as it their primary job to know the location of the boat/aircraft's position at all times. A navigator should know how to maintain the navigation equipment. If you are wishing to become a navigator, it would also be helpful to learn how to read maps.
Marine navigation.
An aircraft navigation system in which radial and distance information from a Vortac station or distance information from two or more Vortacs is used to fix aircraft position, so that navigation is not restricted to airways or direct routes between stations.
A reference point is a fixed location used to describe the position of an object relative to that point. By measuring the distance and direction from the reference point to the object, you can accurately describe its position in space. This method is commonly used in navigation, map-making, and physics to establish a frame of reference for locating objects.
A sextant is a tool used for ship navigation by measuring the angles between celestial objects, typically the stars, and the horizon. This information can then be used to calculate the ship's position on a nautical chart.
When measuring motion, the starting point is referred to as the "initial position" or "reference point." This helps establish a baseline for measuring distance or displacement.
A sextant is a navigational instrument that sights upon the stars to determine a ship's position. This instrument was crucial to naval navigation until global positioning became a reality in the late 20th century. "Henry the Navigator prized his sextant while on his journeys to the New World." "The ship's position is determined by the use of the ship's navigator using a sextant."
The amplitude of a spring can be found by measuring the maximum displacement of the spring from its equilibrium position when it is oscillating back and forth. This can be done by measuring the distance from the rest position to the highest point the spring reaches on one side of its motion.
The amplitude of a wave is the maximum displacement of a particle from its equilibrium position. It can be determined by measuring the distance from the equilibrium position to the highest point of the wave or the peak of a wave.
