No. Venus (even though it has liquid in its core) does not have a magnetic field because of its slow rotation, making the liquid not electrically conducting. Mars does not have a magnetic field, although measurements by space probes have found magnetically active spots because of the iron found in the surface rocks.

No, not all planets have magnetic fields. For example, Mars and Venus do not have global magnetic fields like Earth does.

They actually depend on sun's magnetic power. The sun has its own very strong magnetic power due to which all the planets and the objects are attracted towards each other in the solar system.

No. Scientists believe Venus does not have a magnetic field. If it does, it is too weak for us to detect.

To a greater or lesser extent yes. Though some are vanishingly small.

Do other planets have magnetic fields?

Yes, several planets in our solar system have magnetic fields, including Earth, Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. These magnetic fields are generated by the movement of molten metals in their cores. The strength and structure of the magnetic fields vary from planet to planet.


What planets have a magnetic field?

Earth, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Other planets (Mercury, Venus, and Mars) have magnetic fields too, but they are too tenuous to be detected from anyplace but the surface and don't protect from solar radiation.


Can other planets besides the earth have a magnetosphere?

The magnetosphere is the region around a planet where the solar wind is significantly altered due to the magnetic field of the planet. Planets with a magnetic field arising from internal processes are said to have a global magnetic field. A Global magnetic field will produce a magnetosphere. Six of the planets have global magnetic fields, and hence some magnetosphere; Mercury, Earth, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune. Mars did have one, but when the core froze, that ended the geodynamo. Venus, the near twin of Earth, does not have a geomagnetic field and that is quite perplexing. It too lacks a geodynamo and no one knows why. There are remnant magnetic fields for Mars and Venus, but they are too small to have any significant effect on the solar wind. Jupiter and Saturn have huge magnetic fields and there are only general theories as to what causes them. Uranus has a middling magnetic field, more in the range of Earth's field. The moon has no significant field. We have no idea whether Pluto does or not, but it would be unlikely.


What effect do sunspots have on planets?

Sunspots can affect planets indirectly by influencing solar radiation levels and the solar wind, which can impact planetary atmospheres and magnetic fields. However, sunspots themselves do not have a direct effect on planets in terms of physical or gravitational interactions.


How does the sun affect the eight planets of our solar system?

The sun affects the eight planets in our solar system primarily through gravitational attraction, which keeps the planets in orbit around the sun. The sun's radiation also provides light and heat to the planets, influencing their climates and weather patterns. Additionally, the sun's magnetic field extends throughout the solar system, affecting the planets' own magnetic fields and interactions with solar wind.

it affects the other planets and its rotation


Do other plants have magnetive line?

I assume you mean "planets". Yes, other planets have magnetic fields, too. Jupiter, for example, has a very strong magnetic field.


How do the orientations of Uranus' and Neptune's magnetic axes differ from those of the other planets?

The magnetic axes of Uranus and Neptune are tilted at a much larger angle compared to the rotational axis of the planets. In contrast, the magnetic axes of the other planets are more closely aligned with their rotational axes. This misalignment suggests that the magnetic fields of Uranus and Neptune are generated differently from the other planets.


Can a planet have a quadrupole magnetic field?

Yes - several planets have magnetic fields that do not even vaguely resemble Earth's current field.


Did others planet magnetic field meet the earth magnetic field?

Planets are too far from each other to have any observable interaction of their magnetic fields.


Do any other plants besides the earth have magnets in it?

Yes. They don't have actual magnets, but they do have "magnetic fields". Other planets with magnetic fields are Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.


What planets aren't magnetic?

Not all of the planets within our solar system have a magnetic field. Venus and Mars are the only ones that don't have a magnetic field (all other planets do have one).


What other planets are likely to have visible Northern Lights?

In addition to Earth, other planets with magnetic fields like Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune have been known to have visible auroras. These auroras are caused by charged particles from the Sun interacting with the planets' magnetic fields, creating spectacular light displays in their atmospheres.
