Each GPS satellite sends radio signals down to Earth all the time. The GPS
receivers on the ground pick up these signals. A computer in each receiver
compares the arrival times of signals from different satellites. It can then
calculate the position from this information.

Curl of a Vector Field (cont.)
Physical meaning of Curl
- The curl measures the rotation of a vector field.
Imagine placing a ball in a flow, holding its position fixed, allowing
it to spin freely.
If the ball spins, it indicates rotation.
We indicate the direction of the rotation by the axis of rotation
using the right-hand rule (Fingers with rotation, thumb indicates
direction).
