What do scientist not know about earths magnetic field?
When the north pole becomes the south pole.
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.
Where is earth's magnetic field strongest?
where is the earths magnectic field the stongest? the strongest place of the magnectic place is right in the middle of shouth pole and north pole
What magnet use in the compass?
non the compass uses the earths magnetic field that is why the north pole and south pole is the most important directions because the north and south pole have the most highest magnetic feilds
What is the southern hemisphere counterpart of the North Magnetic Pole?
The south magnetic pole is located in Antarctica. It is constantly moving as a result in shifts in the Earth's magnetic field. Currently it is located near Adelie Land.
How is the objects lifted in magnetic levitation?
It is done with a device that harnesses the earths magnetic field and separates the individual north pole and individual south pole magnets. You can read about it at GOD BASED MAGNETISM.
Is the magnetic pole near the Earths true North Pole a magnetic south pole or a magnetic north pole?
Earths geographic North Pole is also currently a magnetic north pole. This is however not always the case because over geological time scales the Earth's magnetic poles flip as a result of changes of flow in Earth's molten core which produces Earth's magnetic field.
What may cause a compass needle to point to a television rather than earths magnetic north pole?
The television or something in it must be generating a magnetic field.
How are the southpole and the south magnetic pole different?
The "South Pole" (and the North Pole) is the axis about which the earth rotates. The "South Magnetic Pole" has nothing to do with the South Pole other than they are located within the Antarctic Circle. All magnets have a North and South Pole, the "South Magnetic Pole" and the "North Magnetic Pole" are the opposite ends of the earth's magnetic field.
Is the earths magnetic field constant throghout?
No, the Earth's Magnetic Field acts just like a BAR Magnetic. It has a North and South Pole and its magnetic lines of its force field are more tightly 'compressed' near the Poles than at the Equator. See the image below for an example, or Google "magnetic field lines".
Is the magnetic field weakest at the pole?
no
Where is the magnetic field?
At the north pole
