It can move a compass needle. ( i.e. it can provide a force-moment to a balenced iron object )

It can induce a current in a coil. ( i.e. the fundemental basis for induction ).

Why does friction cause magnetic and electrostatic forces?

Friction affects Basketball in many ways. For starters, a player wouldn't be able to stop or run because of the lack relative motion on the surface of an object. Friction is necessary for the sport of basketball.


How can gravity be measured?

Gravity can be measured many ways. You can drop an object and observe how it falls and determine the objects acceleration. With that in hand you can then calculate the force required, and measure gravity that way. You can use a scale, and determine the force acting upon the object placed on it to compress the springs a certain distance, or deflect it a certain distance (depending on the scale's design). A pendulum can be used to measure gravity. The period of a pendulum is directly influenced by the magnitude of the accelerating force (gravity) you can measure altitude with a sensitive pendulum. As gravity is a force, any method you would use to determine the force of one object exerting upon another would work to measure gravity.


Can electric field lines do work?

Yes. Work is force times distance, or technically the dot product of vector force times vector distance. Electric fields exert force on charge and the force does work when the charge moves in the direction of the electric force. (In the converse, when the movement of charge is against the direction of force, work is transformed into stored electromagnetic energy.) Technically, it is the electric field that does work and not the field line. Mother nature produces electric fields, but humans can not see electric fields. Humans invented the idea of field lines to create a mental picture of the field. The two most common ways are to draw lines in space or to draw a collection of arrows in space. Note: One should not confuse this answer with the question of whether work can be done by a magnetic field. A magnetic field can not do work because the direction of the magnetic force is always perpendicular to the direction of motion of charge and hence the dot product of force and distance moved is always zero.

Why ozone is di magnetic?

There are three ways that matter is affected by magnetism: ferromagnetism, paramagnetism, and diamagnetism. Ozone is diamagnetic, meaning that it will try and move itself out of a magnetic field, and / or that a magnetic field will be weaker if ozone is present.


What is of the Angle of magnetic north?

That all depends on WHERE on the earth you are located. The angle between the direction to the north geographic pole and the north magnetic pole is different at different places. Go to "Google.com" and search for "magnetic declination". You'll get plenty to read, and ways to determine what the angle is at your location.

What type of force exists Between Molecules?

There are only four ways that substances interact, or if you prefer, four forces in the universe. They are gravity, the weak nuclear force, electro-magnetic, and the strong nuclear force. In molecules ( presumably in liquid or gaseous states ) they will be slightly pulled together by gravity, but it is the electro-magnetic force that governs everything else. Whether they bind together, break down into component atoms or simpler molecules, form new compunds, etc. is all part of the electro-magnetic interaction.

How can you detect the presence of a magnetic field?

You can detect the presence of a magnetic field using a compass, which will align itself with the field lines. Other devices such as magnetometers can also detect and measure magnetic fields accurately. Additionally, certain materials, such as iron filings, can visualize magnetic field patterns when sprinkled around the area.
