I have been told that a mobile telephone can be located in an emergency. (The debate arose from the story of the 2 kids that spent 3 days lost after trying to sneak into the music festival)

I f any one knows the answer to these questions I welcome your advice.

1. Can a mobile telephone that is turned off be located by the Police, emergency services, etc., if necessary?

2. Can a mobile telephone that has a flat battery be located by the Police, emergency services, etc., if necessary?

3. If out of range for mobile communications for say an 000 call, is anyone aware of a number that when dialled alerts "authorities" of an emergency and acts as a locater?
