🔍 Key Concepts

• Difference between bearing and range • What a gyrocompass actually measures and outputs • How bearing information from the gyro is typically displayed or used on a bridge

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: Does a gyro provide distance information, direction information, or both? • Consider which item in the choices is something the gyro itself directly supplies versus something that comes from another sensor like radar. • Think about what "own ship" information the gyro is designed to give, and what information about targets must come from other equipment.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which options mention range (distance) and whether a gyro can measure distance. • Identify which option refers specifically to own ship rather than another vessel or target. • Check your understanding that a gyrocompass is fundamentally a direction/heading reference instrument, not a distance-measuring device.
