No. The source of earth's magnetic field is the molten inner core. The moon due to its proximity of course influences our magnetic field but it is to be considered a "weak effect".

Where is earths moon located?
earths moon is located basicly on the earths gravitational pull called the ionosphere which is the highest magnetic field of earth
Does the moon have an active magnetic field?
To have an active magnetic field you must have a reasonably fast rotation speed, and a molten metal core. The earths moon has neither of these, so the answer is No, the moon doesn't have a magnetic field of any kind.
Who determined the source of the earth's magnetic field?
The moon
Why can you only see one side of the moon from the earths surface?
because of the earth and moon's magnetic field and gravitational pull
What is the magnetic strength of moon?
The moon does not have a dipolar magnetic field and its external magnetic field is quite weak when compared to that of the Earth.
What do scientist believe causes earths magnetic field?
The center core of the earth is solid iron surrounded by molten iron. The center is solid due to the great pressure and the spinning mass of molten iron around the solid iron core creates the electrodynamic effect that causes Earths magnetism. Our moon has little or no magnetic field because its core has long since cooled.
Does the moon have a stronger magnetic field than the earth?
Venus does not have a magnetic field.
Does the moon have a magnetic pole?
The Moon has a solid core, and therefore has no magnetic field or poles.
Does the moon Triton have a magnetic field?
No.
If magnetic compass does not work on moon Why electric motor work on moon?
No because the Moon does not have a magnetic field like the Earth does. The Earth's magnetic field appears to be created by a liquid metalic out core circulating around a solid core. This works like a dynamo which creates the magnetic field around the Earth. The Moon lacks a similar core stucture. This is also the reason why the Monn has no atmosphere.A magnetic compass would not work on the moon, for the moon does not have the magnetic field that the earth has, allowing us to use this device.No, because moon does not have magnetic force like earth
Why doesn't the moon have a magnetic field?
Venus does not have a magnetic field because its rotational period is very slow. This means that if its core had a liquid metal component, it would not be moving fast enough to generate a field.
What is missing on the Moon from lack of liquid core?
The magnetic field.
