The Earth's magnetic field is oriented in a roughly north-south direction, with the magnetic north pole currently located near the geographic north pole in the Arctic region. The field is generated by the movement of molten iron and nickel in the outer core of the Earth.
The Earth's magnetic field is strongest at the North and South magnetic poles, which are not the same as the geographic North and South poles. The magnetic field strength varies at different locations on the Earth's surface.
No, but at the poles the field (because of the orientation of the field lines) offers the least protection.
Yes, a compass works by aligning itself with the Earth's magnetic field to determine direction. The needle in a compass is magnetized and will point towards the Earth's magnetic north pole.
Unmagnetized refers to a material that does not possess magnetic properties. In this state, the atoms or molecules within the material are randomly oriented and do not produce a magnetic field.
Earth's magnetic field does not affect light or sound. It primarily interacts with charged particles such as electrons and protons in Earth's atmosphere and in space.
Yes.
It is made by the movement of the earths core and magma field
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.
because it has the hydro electric power to control the earths magnetic field
It is Earths' "Magnetosphere".
earths magnetic field is generated by the circulation of liquid metal.
It is Earths' "Magnetosphere".
= An effect of the magnetic field is "Van Allen radiation belt" =
The Earth's Magnetic field.
Earth's magnetic field is strongest at the magnetic North Pole and the magnetic South Pole.
The strength of Earth's magnetic field is strongest at the magnetic poles, which are not necessarily aligned with the geographic poles. The magnetic field is weakest at the magnetic equator.
Compasses use the magnetic field to navigate always pointing North.
