What is it called when rocks are different because Earths magnetic poles change places?
Magnetic Reversal. Several magnetic reversals have occurred over geologic time.
How does earths magnetic axis compare to its rotational axis?
The magnetic axis is relatively unstable compared to the rotational axis. The magnetic poles move around quite a bit from decade to decade. In fact, geologists have discovered that the alignment of the molecules in some sedimentary materials shows that the north and south magnetic poles actually switch places every few tens of thousands of years.
What is used to locate places on the earths surface?
a map
Why does molten rock escape from under the earths surface in certain places?
Scientists do not know the answer to this question.
Some volcanoes form over thin places in earths crust called?
hot spots
What is it called when earths magnetic poles change poles?
This is known as magnetic reversal when earth's magnetic poles change places.

What is it called when Earth's magnetic poles chang places?
This is known as magnetic reversal when earth's magnetic poles change places.
Is the horizontal component of earths magnetic field of induction equal at all places?
No. Der
What is happening to earths magnetic field?
In early 2014, scientists have discovered that the Earth's magnetic field has been weakening for some time. This could eventually lead to the switching of the Earth's magnetic poles.
What makes the season change?
because of earths tilt (axis)different amounts of sunlight hit different places at different times that's the answer
How does the Earths magnetism help us find your way?
As such till now there is no proper or valid theory to prove or explain the cause of earth's magnetic field. A bar magnet or a magnetic compass alligns itself in the direction of earth's magnetic field. This process happens as south pole of magnet alligns itself to north pole of earth n vice versa true north pole is southpole of magnet. Exact location of places can be done by calculating the magnetic flux density n various other factor . . . . . .
What physical process can cause places to change over time?
The Physical features of Earth continue to change.
How does earths magnetic axis compare to its rotational axis?
The magnetic axis is relatively unstable compared to the rotational axis. The magnetic poles move around quite a bit from decade to decade. In fact, geologists have discovered that the alignment of the molecules in some sedimentary materials shows that the north and south magnetic poles actually switch places every few tens of thousands of years.
Why do the magnetic poles move around?
Because the metals in the hot center of our earth are moving arround.
What is used to locate places on the earths surface?

Where can someone buy magnetic beads?
There are many places one can purchase magnetic beads. Some of them include Magnetic Beads, Kaleidoscope Crafts, Magnetic Jewelry, Arizona Bead Company, and Amazon.
