There are three ways that matter is affected by magnetism: ferromagnetism, paramagnetism, and diamagnetism. Ozone is diamagnetic, meaning that it will try and move itself out of a magnetic field, and / or that a magnetic field will be weaker if ozone is present.

Without earths magnetic field what would happen to earths ozone?

Probably very little would change if you either doubled the magnetic field strength, reversed it, or made it zero. If you reversed it, the larger hole might form over the north pole. UV-C from the Sun makes ozone in the ozone layer, most solar wind (the stuff affected by our magnetic field) does not survive to reach the ozone layer. The poles might retain a bit more ozone into the late spring, with a nearly unmeasureable decrease in overall ozone levels to match.


Is the ozone layer the same as Earth's magnetosphere?

The magnetic field diverts most positive charges of the solar wind to the south pole, and "scoops" more solar wind than Earth would otherwise receive. Much of these positive charges are hydrogen, the hydrogen oxidizes to water vapor, and water vapor both prevents one method of making ozone and accelerates the decay of ozone. So the magnetic field makes the south polar hole larger than the north polar hole, and serves to deplete ozone generally. Ozone is a polar molecule, and as such can be damped in oscillation / rotation by the Earth's magnetic field. So the magnetic field also serves to "cool" ozone down a bit.


What protects the earth from suns harmful rays?

The Ozone layer of the earth protects the earth from the harmful UV radiations of the sun.


What is di-magnetic?

Diamagnetic materials are those that create a weak magnetic field in the opposite direction when exposed to an external magnetic field. This causes them to be slightly repelled by magnets. Examples of diamagnetic materials include water, copper, and wood.

Is the depletion of the ozone layer related to the cracks in the earths magnetic field?

No it is not. The ozone depletion is independent of the cracks in magnetic field.

What protects earth from most solar wind?

Its the magnetic field of the Earth that protects us from the solar wind. This deflects the stream of charged particles away from us, creating the magnetosphere.
