Is the sun a magnet to earth?

Not a magnet, no. But it does attract the Earth and this is due to gravity.


What is the strongest type of permanent magnet?

An electro-magnet would be the strongest magnet. Or the sun itself would be the strongest natural magnet.


What is the solar systems largest magnet?

the sun :D


Why does the moon exist when you can have the sun at night?

Because the moon is also a magnet which controls the power of waves =]


You are given a bar magnet how will you find out the west direction?

The sun sets in the West and rises in the East. Unless the bar magnet has its N pole marked, it is of little use, you can get it to point N/S by freely suspending it but you will not be able to tell east from west. The direction the sun is moving is more relevant.


Can an object have more than two magnetic poles?

Yes, for instance each sunspot on the sun is caused by separate pairs of magnetic poles poking through the sun's photosphere. No, no matter how many times you break up a magnet, it will always have a north and a south pole. No matter how small the magnet is.


Can you replace the sun?

It will be extremely hard and out of our technology but yes we can. We need and object that will interact with the sun like a magnet that has a negative charge but push the sun at a very fast rate and bring a different star in the solar system.


Why earth is always rotating?

because of the gravitational pull of the sun keeping us in orbit, kind of like a giant magnet.


How does magnetism make our life safer?

Because the Earth is like a giant magnet it keeps the Sun's radiation from killing us.


What is the biggest magnet in the solar system?

The Sun's own magnetic field - the star is the largest and most active component of the system.


How does distance affect the strenght of the force of gravity?

it is like a magnet to metal and the sun is our magnet to the planets but inertia is the thing that keeps it away from our magnet the sun The farther apart two objects are, the lower the gravitational force between them, so gravity gets weaker with distance. To be specific, it decreases by the square of the distance. So if you double the the distance, the force of gravity is 1/4 as strong. If you triple the distance, the force is 1/9 as strong, and so on.


Does the size of a magnet affect its strength?

Yes. Larger the magnet greater the magnetism. For example: Both the Sun and the Earth are powerful magnets. But the Sun's magnetism is 100 times greater than the magnetism of Earth. This is because the size of the Sun is also about 100 times greater than the Earth.Another AnswerThe intensity of a magnetic field is measured in terms of its flux density, which is defined as the flux per unit area. This corresponds to a weber per square metre('weber' is pronounced 'vay-ber') which, in SI, is given a special name: the tesla.So if a magnet has a given flux, then the smaller the area (perpendicular to the field) of that magnet, the higherits flux density. So the intensity of a magnetic field is a function of both the field (which depends on the type of material from which the magnet is made) itself and the perpendicular area of the magnet.
