Question

  1. the aurora borealis and aurora australis occur when solar winds interact with earth’s magnetic field. how is earth’s magnetic field generated? movement of earth’s liquid core movement within the mantle magnetic rocks located in the crust earth’s solid inner core

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

The Earth's magnetic field is generated by the movement of its liquid - outer core. The liquid iron in the outer core moves due to convection currents and the rotation of the Earth, creating electric currents which in turn generate the magnetic field. Movement within the mantle is related to plate tectonics and not the generation of the magnetic field. Magnetic rocks in the crust are affected by the magnetic field but do not generate it. The solid inner core is not responsible for generating the magnetic field.

Answer:

movement of Earth's liquid core
