What does the Van Allen Belt have to do with the north and south pole?
Wiki User
∙ 13y ago
The charged particles flowing through space around the Earth follow the lines of magnetic force, resulting in a higher concentration of these particles in two toroidal bands curving outward from pole to pole. The radiation belts are called the Van Allen Belts after scientist James Van Allen (1914-2006).

what poles are unlike a magnet?
North pole and South pole
The south pole a compass magnet points toward?
magnetic north north pole =magnetic south
The point farthest north on the earth is called?
The North Pole.
What is the name of the area surrounding earth that is influenced by earths magnetic fields?
The Earth's magnetic field is called the Magnetosphere. Loops of magnetic energy coupling the north and south pole that trap energetic subatomic particles are called the Van Allen belt.
What polarity is the north pole?
'Magnetic North' is a term used to distinguish that LOCATION from 'True North'. The magnetic polarity of Magnetic North is south because it attracts the north pole of a compass needle (unlike poles attract).
What causes the part of earths magnetic field called the magnetosphere to exist?
Earth's magnetic field (and the surface magnetic field) is approximately a magnetic dipole, with one pole near the north pole and the other near the geographic south pole. The Inner Van Allen Belt & Outer Van Allen Belt cause the magnetic field.
The lines of magnetic force generated by the fluid motions of the earth's core results in the formation of what?
A.) magnetic north and south poles B.) north magnetic pole C.) north pole D.) north and south poles E.) south magnetic pole these are the options ^^
Where on earth is the sun's rays spread out thinly all the time?
North and south pole
How many miles is it from the south pole to the north pole?
It takes about 12,450.5 miles from the north pole to the south pole or south pole to north pole.
What Location is at 90 Latitude?
The North Pole is at 90 North & the South Pole is at 90 South.
what poles are unlike a magnet?
North pole and South pole
The earth is meaning it has 2 poles?
The Earth has a magnetic field around it. The magnetic North is close to what we call the North Pole. The magnetic South is at the South Pole. There is a magnetic North and South and a geographic North and South pole.
What you the latitude of the North pole and south pole?
The latitude at the north pole is 90° North. Thg elatitude at the south pole is 90° South.
Where is Arctic North pole or South pole?
the arctic is the north pole antarctica is the south pole :)
The south pole a compass magnet points toward?
magnetic north north pole =magnetic south
