Explain why auroras are seen mostly near the north pole and south pole?

An Aurora Australis or an Aurora Borealis occurs when streams of particles from the sun's solar winds hit the earth's atmosphere at an angle (as can only happen at the poles). These particles interact with the edges of the earth's magnetic field and when they collide with the gases in the ionosphere, the particles glow creating curtains of blue, green and magenta. An aurora is sometimes accompanied by a crackling sound. The Aurora Australis appears around Antarctica and the Aurora Borealis appears around the Arctic.


How should 2 bar magnets be placed on a table so that they repel each other?

north and north or south and south (red, red) (blue, blue)


What is the color of a north magnetic pole by convention?

Magnets do not have colors.Further AnswerLaboratory magnets are often painted to indicate their north poles. Usually, this takes the form of completely painting the 'north' half of the magnet, and leaving the other half unpainted. There is no significance as far the colour itself is concerned, it may be black, red, or any other colour.


Why is aurora only at night?

An Aurora Australis or an Aurora Borealis occurs when streams of particles from the sun's solar winds hit the earth's atmosphere at an angle (as can only happen at the poles). These particles interact with the edges of the earth's magnetic field and when they collide with the gases in the ionosphere, the particles glow creating curtains of blue, green and magenta.

Which end of a magnet is traditionally indicated with blue colors?

The "south pole" of a magnet is usually marked with blue, while the "north pole" is marked with red.

Color of blue sky?

well i think it would be red, maybe green. Even yellow at times.Improving the answerBy: hulk789The sky is blue due the sunlight being filtered through atmospheric gases. The only places where the sky will turn red, green, yellow, or any other sort of colors for that matter is at the 2 magnetic poles, the north magnetic pole and the south magnetic poles. The color change are the characteristics auroras, a natural electrical phenomenon. Which means auroras cause the color change in the sky.

In most cases, red will be the north and blue, the south.


When was Blue Poles created?

Blue Poles was created in 1952.


Are the rainbows and Aurora are same?

No, rainbows are when the sun shines through raindrops and the light is split up into the colors of the rainbow, like light through a prism. Auroras are caused by charged particles from the sun colliding with atoms of oxygen and nitrogen high up in the ionosphere, above the north and south magnetic poles. In the collision colored lights, green, blue and red, are emitted.

What makes the needle in a compass move?

When the needle of a compass points in a certain direction that means that the poles of earth have alined it so the point is pointing to the north pole (because earth is a magnet) so In conclusion the poles of earth are being attracted to the opposite pole of the needle because opposites attract and the needles in compasses are designed to point the "pointy" part at the north pole. (pretty smart for an 11year old). To be a little more technical, all magnets have a magnetic field going out from its North Pole and entering back in at its South Pole. When in another magnetic field, the fields will exert a force to try to align the field lines. If near a ferromagnetic material, such as iron, the field lines are distorted and exert a force between the magnet and the metal to realign the fields. Since the compass needle has a small mass, and easily spins, it is usually the object which will move.


What is directional properties of a magnet?

The directive property of magnetism states that when a magnet is suspended in air, it's N and S (north and south) axis's will remain in the same direction as the earths magnetic meridian. I.e. It will continuously point north and south. If you were to mark one side red and one side blue and spin the magnetic 6 times it would still resort back to the original direction it was in.


Why did the south wear grey and north wear blue?

The north wore blue because it was worn in the American revolution . The south wore grey because it was cheaper to dye.
