No one knows, but probably it does NOT have an Iron/Nickel core , like Earth.

Is the moon not magnetic electromagnet or permnanetmagnet?

The moon does not generate its own magnetic field like Earth does. The moon is considered non-magnetic because it lacks a global magnetic field that is generated by a planetary dynamo.


Why doesn't the moon have a magnetic field?

Venus does not have a magnetic field because its rotational period is very slow. This means that if its core had a liquid metal component, it would not be moving fast enough to generate a field.


Does Phobos have a magnetic field?

Phobos had no magnetic field neither in the past nor present. First, Phobos is a solid satellite and thus no molten core and can't generate magnetic field. Second, even in the molten state it's size is too small that such metallic core would effectively formed and cause electrodynamics effect creating magnetic field.


Does enceladus have a magnetic field?

Enceladus, a moon of Saturn, does not have a global magnetic field. However, there is evidence to suggest that localized magnetic fields may exist at the south pole region of the moon, possibly linked to its subsurface ocean and geologic activity.


What factors affect magnetic field strength?

The factors that affect magnetic field strength include the current flowing through a wire, the number of loops in a coil, the material in which the magnetic field is present, and the distance from the source of the magnetic field. Additionally, the permeability of the material and the shape of the magnet can also impact the strength of the magnetic field.

What is the magnetic strength of moon?

The moon does not have a dipolar magnetic field and its external magnetic field is quite weak when compared to that of the Earth.


Does the moon have a stronger magnetic field than the earth?

No, the moon does not have a global magnetic field like Earth. Some localized magnetic fields have been detected on the moon's surface, but they are much weaker than Earth's magnetic field.


Does the moon have a magnetic pole?

The moon does not have a global magnetic field like Earth. However, there are localized regions on the moon's surface that have magnetic properties, likely due to past interactions with Earth's magnetic field when the moon was forming.


Is the moon not magnetic electromagnet or permnanetmagnet?

The moon does not generate its own magnetic field like Earth does. The moon is considered non-magnetic because it lacks a global magnetic field that is generated by a planetary dynamo.


Does the moon Triton have a magnetic field?

Yes, Triton, the largest moon of Neptune, does have a weak magnetic field. It is thought to be the result of the moon's subsurface ocean interacting with its icy shell and the magnetic field of Neptune.


Does the moon have an active magnetic field?

To have an active magnetic field you must have a reasonably fast rotation speed, and a molten metal core. The earths moon has neither of these, so the answer is No, the moon doesn't have a magnetic field of any kind.


Is the moon a source of earth's magnetic field?

No. The source of earth's magnetic field is the molten inner core. The moon due to its proximity of course influences our magnetic field but it is to be considered a "weak effect".


What is electro -magnetic force?

Magnetic force is present around the electric field which is also known as electro-magnetic field.


Why doesn't the moon have a magnetic field?

Venus does not have a magnetic field because its rotational period is very slow. This means that if its core had a liquid metal component, it would not be moving fast enough to generate a field.


If magnetic compass does not work on moon Why electric motor work on moon?

No because the Moon does not have a magnetic field like the Earth does. The Earth's magnetic field appears to be created by a liquid metalic out core circulating around a solid core. This works like a dynamo which creates the magnetic field around the Earth. The Moon lacks a similar core stucture. This is also the reason why the Monn has no atmosphere.A magnetic compass would not work on the moon, for the moon does not have the magnetic field that the earth has, allowing us to use this device.No, because moon does not have magnetic force like earth


Who determined the source of the earth's magnetic field?

The moon


Is moon magnet?

Yes, the moon does have a weak magnetic field, but it is much smaller than Earth's. This magnetic field is believed to be a remnant from when the moon was formed billions of years ago.
