a common mineral in Earth’s crust, which were extracted from a 591-million-year-old rock formation in Brazil. Plagioclase crystals contain tiny magnetic minerals that preserve the intensity of the Earth’s magnetic field at the time they are formed. Analysis of the crystals showed that, at t...
A. It has no relation to the Earth's interior structure. B. It can only tell us about the surface temperature. C. Changes in the magnetic field can indicate the movement of materials in the core. D. It can directly show the thickness of the mantle. 相关知识点: 试题...
Professor: Think of earth as a one big giant magnet.So, earth is surrounded by a magnetic field, and we know that every magnet has a north and a south pole and things get oriented toward those poles. Earth is no exception, right?
Life as we know it could not exist without Earth's magnetic field and its ability to deflect dangerous ionizing particles from the solar wind and more far-flung cosmic rays. It is continuously generated by the motion of liquidironin Earth'souter core, a phenomenon called the geodynamo. Despit...
Most often used for geomagnetic measurements are the fluxgate magnetometer, which gives vector components, and the proton precession magnetometer, which measures field intensity.Auster, HUPhysics TodayH.-U. Auster, How to measure Earth's magnetic field. Phys. Today 61(2), 76 (2008). ISSN:...
There are even indications of large-scale crustal movements that are similar to the plate tectonics of Earth. [#paragraph6]Why is Ganymede different from Callisto? Possibly the small difference in size and internal heating between the two led to this divergence in their evolution. But more ...
MAGNETIC fieldsMATHEMATICAL physicsEARTH science educationAlthough seafloor banding patterns are widely taught as a key piece of evidence for plate tectonics, little research has been conducted on student understanding of magnetism in a geological context. This study was conduct...

Clues to how birds migrate using Earth’s magnetic field 鸟类如何利用地球磁场帮助导航迁徙? Play audio file 鸟类如何长途跋涉,飞越海洋和陆地?科学家离揭开这个谜团又近了一步。 Scientists studied the robin – a familiar garden bird that can sometimesmigrate– flying alone, at night and often over gr...
The magnetic compass somehow makes use of Earth's magnetic field, much the way a standard compass does. 磁罗盘在某种程度上利用的是地球磁场,差不多像标准罗盘仪那样。 But to prove this, we would have to find some kind of magnetic sensory organ in birds. And we are not sure that we have...
