What is a a result of the deflection of charged particles along the Van Allen belts?
covection of the atom
What creates van Allen belts?
Earth magnetosphere
What materials are belts for men commonly made of?
The materials commonly used to make men's belts are a long piece of leather and a buckle. All one needs to do is cut the leather to the width and height to one's preference and attach the buckle. Also, dye may need to be used to make the belt the color he wants.
Which feature can be produced at an ocean-continental convergence?
Parallel belts of folded mountains and volcanic mountains
When riding in a car we can sense changes in speed or direction through the forces the car applies on us. Do we wear seat belts in cars and airplanes to protect us from speed or from acceleration?
Acceleration
Why do charged particles from the sun (the solar wind) get trapped in the van Allen radiation belts?
The Van Allen belts are caused by Earth's magnetic field. Charged particles are deflected in the presence of a magnetic field.
Which contains bands of charged particles known as the van Allen belts?
magnetosphere
What is the result of the deflection of charged particles along the van Allen belts?
covection of the atom
One effect of the magnetic lines of force around the earth is an area of charged particles called the what?
Van Allen belts
What is a a result of the deflection of charged particles along the Van Allen belts?

What is an area of charged particles that is formed as one effect of the magnetic lines of force around the earth called?
Such areas are called Van Allen belts.
The location of the Van Allen Radiation Belts?
The Van Allen belts are composed of charged particles from the solar wind that became captured in the Earth's magnetic field. Deflection of charged particles
What does the Van Allen Belt have to do with the north and south pole?
The charged particles flowing through space around the Earth follow the lines of magnetic force, resulting in a higher concentration of these particles in two toroidal bands curving outward from pole to pole. The radiation belts are called the Van Allen Belts after scientist James Van Allen (1914-2006).
When the solar wind reaches earth charged particles are deflected from earth and trapped in two huge rings in earths magnetic field called what?
Those are the Van Allen belts.
Does the Troposphere extend to the Van Allen Belts of radiation?
The Troposphere is the lowest layer of Earth's atmosphere. Weather occurs in the Troposphere. The Van Allen Belts are made up of charged particles that have been captured by Earth's magnetic field. The particles sometimes enter the ionosphere, a layer of the Earth's atmosphere much higher than the Troposphere. The Northern and Southern lights are the result of these ions entering the Ionosphere. The Van Allen Belts are doughnut shaped and extend for 7,000 miles out into space.
What are the Van Allen belts?
The Van Allen radiation belts are layers of plasma particles that are around the earth in the magnetosphere. These radiation belts were confirmed to exist in 1958 by James Van Allen. There is an outer and inner belt. The belts can cause problems for both satellites and any rockets or other vehicles that travel through the belts.
Where are Van Allen belts found?
A Van Allen Radiation Belt (there are actually two persistent belts, while transient third belts are occasionally observed) is a torus of energetic charged particles (plasma) around Earth, held in place by Earth's magnetic field. The Van Allen belts are closely related to the polar aurora where particles strike the upper atmosphere and fluoresce.
