What else can I help you with?
Why would we not expect magnetic fields on the moon or mercury?
You might, but that would be wrong! Mercury has a strong magnetic field.
Which planet has craters cliffs and a weak magnetic field?
Mercury is the planet that has craters, cliffs, and a weak magnetic field. Its surface is heavily cratered, and there are large cliffs called scarps. Mercury's magnetic field is about 1% as strong as Earth's magnetic field.
Does Mercury have a magnetic field?
Yes. It has a modest magnetic field that is approximately aligned with the planet's axis of rotation. The field is a planetary dipole, and it is though to be generated in a manner similar to the way the earth is though to generate its magnetic field - dynamo action at or around the core. The strength of the field has been estimated as approximately 1% of Earth's. (see link)
What is the difference between a strong and a weak magnetic field?
A strong magnetic field has a higher magnetic flux density than a weak magnetic field. This means that a strong magnetic field exerts a greater force on nearby magnetic materials compared to a weak magnetic field. Additionally, strong magnetic fields are more effective for magnetizing materials or creating magnetic induction.
Can Mercury be magnetized is it attracted to magnets?
Yes, Mercury can be magnetized. The metal is diamagnetic, meaning it can create a magnetic field in response to an external magnetic field, but it is very weakly attracted to magnets due to its low magnetic susceptibility.
What planet has craters cliffs and a weak magnetic field?
Mercury fits this description, as it has craters, cliffs (known as scarps), and a weak magnetic field. Mercury's magnetic field is only about 1% as strong as Earth's magnetic field.

How strong is the Mercury and magnetic field compared to the Earth?
Mercury has a weak magnetic field, about 1% as strong as Earth's. Earth's magnetic field is generated by its outer core, which produces a powerful magnetic field that protects the planet from solar winds and cosmic radiation. Mercury's magnetic field is thought to be caused by its partially liquid core and is much weaker due to its smaller size and slower rotation.
When was Mercury's magnetic field created?
Mercury's magnetic field was created in 1974-04.

Is there a magnet field on the planet mercury?
Mercury does, despite its small size, have a magnetic field, and the planet is approximately a magnetic dipole (meaning the field has only two magnetic poles). Data from the space probe Mariner 10 led to its discovery in 1974, at which time the probe measured the strength of the magnetic field to be about 1.1% of that of earth, but it's strong enough to divert solar radiation and therefore creates a magnetosphere around the planet.
Why is Saturns Magnetic field strong?
more fluid = stronger magnetic field.
What creates a planet's magnetic field?
The dynamo. For terrestrial planets, the dynamo is a molten core of nickel-iron. Mercury and Earth have fairly strong dynamos and therefore fairly strong magnetic fields. Venus and Mars do not, and have only weak magnetic fields.
Which planets do have a magnetic field?
Neptune, Uranus, Saturn, Jupiter, and Earth all have magnetic fields. Mercury has a very weak magnetic field.
