Earth's magnetic field results from the movement of charges in/on the earth. The rotation of the earth is one source of movement and orbiting is another source of movement. Electric currents and spinning charges could also create a magnetic field independent of the earth's movement.

Light wave is composed of two components an electrical component and a component?

A light wave is composed of an electric field component and a magnetic field component, both of which oscillate perpendicular to each other and to the direction of propagation. These components interact to create the electromagnetic radiation that we perceive as light.


Is bone magnetic?

No, bones are not magnetic. They do not contain enough iron or other magnetic materials to exhibit magnetic properties. Although bones do contain some iron, it is not in a form that would create a magnetic field.


What is magnetic variation?

Magnetic variation is the angle between true north (the direction pointing to the North Pole) and magnetic north (the direction a compass needle points). It varies depending on location and changes over time due to shifts in the Earth's magnetic field. Pilots and navigators use magnetic variation to accurately navigate using a compass.


Why can't AC electricity be used to make an electromagnet?

In an electromagnet, the negative side of the coil is said to "emit" the magnetic field lines- it is the north pole of the electromagnet. However, in alternating current, the energized wire alternates between positive and negative. As a result, a conventional electromagnet running on alternating current would constantly be undergoing a reversal of the poles.


Which variable does not effect biome distribution?

One variable that does not affect biome distribution is magnetic field strength. While factors like temperature, precipitation, and latitude play a significant role in determining the types of biomes that exist in a particular region, the strength of the magnetic field does not have a direct impact on biome distribution.
