This is due to the fact of the large range of the magnetosphere, the magnetic field of the earth. It can only be caused by metal moving in currents. It is strong enough to point compasses in the right direction, but not enough to stick frying pans to the floor, unfortunately.

<u>Answer:</u>

The geologists think that earth's core mostly contain iron because earth has a powerful magnetic field which is because of the molten iron in the core. The constant movement of molten iron in the core causes an electrical current inside the planet which results into the generation of magnetic field which reaches far out into the space. This magnetic field also helps to shield the people living in this planet from the harmful solar radiations.

Answer:

The statement is not true.

Explanation:

Global warming is a process that is occurring naturally, with or without human activity. This is not to say that humans don't have an impact, on contrary, the human activities have managed to add enough greenhouse gases in the atmosphere so that the process is speeded up, and that becomes very alarming because the changes are much faster.

Very often, the finger is pointed to the most developed countries in the world when it comes to greenhouse gas emissions like they are the only ones that contribute to it. This is far from true though. All of the well-developed countries, except for the US, have been investing heavily in environmentally friendly energy sources and have had a decrease in greenhouse emissions. On the other hand, countries like China, India, Indonesia, Pakistan, Nigeria, are all among the top polluters when it comes to greenhouse gases emissions. Now to be fair, the countries that are now well developed did a lot of harm in the past while they were developing, so it is hard to criticize the developing countries for wanting to become richer except if they are helped in sorting out the issue.
