No, not at all. The gravitational force depends only on the masses involved, and on the distance between the masses. Magnetism should be considered a separate force - and it has no effect on gravity.

Why is gravity caused by earths magnetic field?

It isnt. Two different forces; gravity and magnetism. As for how gravity works; all objects have their own "gravity", the bigger they are, the more gravitational pull they have. Why gravity works; nobody knows or we would all have flying cars.


Earths magnetic field is not the cause of gravity?

No. Those are two quite different forces. The Earth's gravity is caused by the amount of mass Earth has.No. Those are two quite different forces.

How does a magnet work in space?

In space, a magnet works the same way as it does on Earth. A magnet creates a magnetic field around it that attracts or repels other magnetic materials. This is because the movement of charged particles within the magnet creates a magnetic force. In space, the lack of air or gravity does not affect the magnet's ability to create a magnetic field.


Where does the magnetic force come from within the earth?

The magnetic force within the Earth comes from the movement of molten iron and nickel in the outer core. This movement generates electric currents, which in turn create a magnetic field. This magnetic field is what gives the Earth its north and south magnetic poles.


Can the magnetism of the earth keep us on the earth like gravity?

No, the magnetism of the Earth does not keep us on the Earth in the same way that gravity does. Gravity is the force that attracts objects toward the center of the Earth, keeping us grounded. Earth's magnetic field, on the other hand, helps protect the planet from solar radiation and guides compass needles.

Does earth's magnetic field cause gravity?

No, Earth's magnetic field and gravity are two separate phenomena. Earth's magnetic field is generated by its core while gravity is a fundamental force that exists between all objects with mass. Gravity is responsible for the attraction between objects, including the force that keeps us anchored to the Earth.


How does the sun create Earth's gravity?

It does not. Earth's gravity is the result of Earth's mass.


What keeps us from flosting away from earth?

gravity holds you down. The earth has a magnetic force, and the gravity pulls anything in the fireld to earth


How does gravity work on a pencil on earth?

The magnetic core of the earth pulls on the mass of the pencil.


Is gravity caused due to magnetic field of earth or due to the mass of earth?

Gravity is mainly caused by the mass of Earth. The magnetic field of Earth plays a minimal role in the force of gravity experienced at the surface. Gravity is a fundamental force of attraction between all masses, and the larger the mass, the stronger the gravitational pull.


How did the earth get the magnetic field?

Because there's a magnet in the centre of the earth which is known that it's the source of gravity. It's magnetic field is around the earth obviously.


Does the earth's magnetic field give information on the earth's interior composition?

The earth has electric currents in its structure, that create magnetic fields.


How do you use the word magnetic force in a sentence?

The magnetic force of the Earth's gravity holds the Moon in it's orbit.


Can the earth create its own gravity?

Yes. Earth produces its own gravity. That is what keeps us on the ground.


Why do you think the sun's gravity does not pull the earth into the sun?

The pull of the Sun's gravity is needed to hold the Earth in orbit.


What creates the Earths magnetic field?

Scientists believe that it is the movements in the liquid outer core that create the magnetic field. Earth's magnetic field affects the whole planet.
