Is the magnetic field of earth stronger near the equator of near the south pole?

The magnetic field is stronger at the poles.


Is the magnetic field of Earth stronger near the middle of the Earth (in Mexico) or at the bottom of Earth (in Antarctica)?

It would be stronger as you approach the Equator of the planet.


Is the magnetic field of earth stronger near the middle or the bottom of the earth?

If by "middle", you mean the center of the sphere (inside the core), then yes the magnetic density will be high, there, just as it is inside of a magnet. If you mean at the equator, then that is not the strongest place. If by "bottom", you mean the South Pole, the magnetic field density will be stronger at the poles (north and south) than any other place on the surface of the Earth.


What is magnetic field strength?

Earth's magnetic field strength at the equator is about 30 microtesla.


Does the moon have a stronger magnetic field than the earth?

Venus does not have a magnetic field.


Why do charged particles from outer space like cosmic rays strike Earth more frequently at the poles than at the equator?

Charged particles are attracted to magnetic fields, and therefore are attracted to the magnetic poles of the Earth.


Is the magnetic field of earth stronger near the middle of the earth or at the bottom of earth?

near both magnetic poles


Angle of dip zero at equator?

the magnetic field of earth is parallel to the earth surface


Why Auroras do not happened near equator?

The auroras that are experienced near the polar regions occur because of the strength of the earth's magnetic field. The magnetic field is not very strong at the equator.

Stronger near the poles, thus Antarctica.


How does the strength of earth magnetic field compared to the strength of the field of an average permanent magnet?

Earth has a magnetic field weaker than Jupiter but stronger than Venus.Jupiter 4.2 gauss at the equator to 10--14 gauss at the polesEarth less than 30 microteslas (0.3 gauss) at the equator to over 60 microteslas (0.6 gauss) around the polesVenus does not have a magnetic field.
