The characteristics of a magnetic field

Magnetism produces lines of force known as flux. These can be detected by compass needle which shows the direction you are travelling as the earth’s magnetic north pole attracts the north ends of other magnets. The magnetic lines of force start from the north pole...

Earth’s magnetic field

Earth’s magnetic field, albeit generated approximately 2,000 miles below the surface, protects the planet’s atmosphere from space radiation and solar wind. It is essential, then, for life. The strength of the magnetic field, though, is rapidly decreasing; in the past 300 years alone, its strength...
