What are magnetic particles in sand called?
Shli
Describe how the polarity of earth's magnetic field is recorded in the sea floor?
The position of Earth's magnetic field changes over geologic time, pole is located near Earth's North Pole, a condition called normal polarity.
Where is earths magnetic North Pole?
compasses point to it. its at the north pole in the arcticNo It's not, the Magnetic North Pole is at this moment just off Ellesmere Island heading towards Russia at a rate of 40 miles (60 km) per year.AnswerIt depends what you mean by 'magnetic north pole'. If you mean the location, called 'Magnetic North' (arctic), then its polarity is south. If, by 'magnetic north pole', you mean its magnetic polarity, then it's located at Magnetic South (antarctic).
What is the The north magnetic pole of a compass needle is attracted to the magnetic pole of the earth.?
The needle on a compass points to the North Magnetic Pole. CommentA compass points to Magnetic North, not to the north magnetic pole. They are two different things -the first is location, the second is magnetic polarity.
What are the bands of Solar particles trapped in the magnetic shield called?
Van Allen Belt
What is the internal structure of a magnet?
As we know every particle is made up of tiny particles called atoms,each magnet is made up of tiny particles called Molecular magnets.Each of them acts as a individual magnet with North and South poles.There arrangement decides the polarity of the magnets
What is The process of arranging the magnetic particles on the disk surface for reading and writing so data can be stored is called what?
This is called "Formatting"
What is it called when the earths poles switch positions over time?
The phenomenon you're referring to is known as geomagnetic reversal or magnetic pole reversal. This occurs when the Earth's magnetic field flips its polarity, causing the magnetic north and south poles to switch positions.
What do you call the magnetic force around a magnet?
I'm pretty sure its the 'magnetic field'
A compass needle is a small magnet.It line up with the Earth's magnetic field lines what must me true about the polarity of the compass needle which points northwards geographically?
'Magnetic North' is so-called to distinguish it from 'True North' -it has nothing whatsoever to do with describing its magnetic polarity. The poles of a magnet and, therefore, a compass needle, are named after the directions in which they point. Since unlike poles attract, the magnetic polarity of Magnetic North must be a south pole.
How can one see magnetic fields?
One can see magnetic fields by using a device called a magnetic field viewer, which contains tiny particles that align with the magnetic field lines, making them visible to the human eye.
What is inside a magnet that gives it its magnetic properties?
Inside a magnet, there are tiny particles called atoms that have their own magnetic fields. These atoms align in the same direction, creating a magnetic field that gives the magnet its magnetic properties.
