Do scientists think that movements in the liquid inner core create earths magnetic field?
The Earth's magnetic field is the result of electric currents in the liquid metal outer core.
The outer core of the Earth is over 2,000 km thick. It sits above the solid inner core and is composed of highly conducting liquid iron and nickel. Above the outer core is the Earth's mantle.
The geodynamo is the mechanism thought to be responsible for the electric current in the core and the generation of the Earth's magnetic field through the convection of conducting fluids in the Earth's core. Other planets with a molten metal core can also have a magnetic field.

What creates the Earths magnetic field?
Scientists believe that it is the movements in the liquid outer core that create the magnetic field. Earth's magnetic field affects the whole planet.
Can the US gov create an earthquake?
no. earthquakes are set off by sudden movements in the earths crust
The possible source of earths magnetic core is?
The molten iron and medals inside the earths core are the reasons for the earths magnetic core.
Earth's magnetic field results from the spinning of the?
The earths magnetic field results from deep in the earths core. Magnetic conduction from within the earths core is believed to be the cause of this.
What does Earths magnetic axis do not do with its rotational axis?
intersect
What creates the Earths magnetic field?
Scientists believe that it is the movements in the liquid outer core that create the magnetic field. Earth's magnetic field affects the whole planet.
What happens in earths interior to produce earths magnetic?
The movements in the liquid inner core.
What happens in earths interior produce earths magnetic field?
The movements in the liquid inner core.
Why do scientists believe that the inner core is the source of earths magnetic field?
because it has the hydro electric power to control the earths magnetic field
What happens to earth's interior to produce earths magnetic field?
The movements in the liquid inner core.
What produces earths magnetic field?
Scientists think that the Earth's magnetic field is generated by movements in the liquid outer core. (exact e2020 answer help out you wiki answers shortcuts!!)if you want a more serious answer i suggest looking up the "dynamo theory"
Why do scientists believethat the inner core is the source of earth's magnetic field?
The core is a dense chunck of metal that influence the earths magnetic field.
Why do scientists think that earths' magnetic field has not always pointed north?
Every 100,000 years or so, the Earths magnetic field shifts direction. North becomes south, south becomes north.
How do birds learn how to migrate?
Its an internal instinct, and some scientists say it has something to do with the Earths magnetic pull.
Earth's magnetic field results from movements in the what?
The Earth's magnetic field results from electric currents in the mantle and outer core around the iron solid core; every electricmagnet is prduced as a result of electricity flowing around a iron core - the same principle works in our own magnetic field.
Can the US gov create an earthquake?
no. earthquakes are set off by sudden movements in the earths crust
Why is the moon responsible for predicting tidal movements in the earths oceans?
The moon doesn't predict anything, but scientists do and the gravitational pull of the moon , sun, and the earth determines tidal movements.
