Research the solar wind and what happens when the solar wind interacts with Earth’s magnetic field. Begin by looking for images and credible sites on the Internet or refer to some books in a library. If searching on the Internet, include the search term magnetosphere. The magnetosphere is the magnetic field surrounding a planet where charged particles are trapped. Answer the following questions: What is the solar wind?
What happens when Earth’s magnetic field interacts with the solar wind?
What are the Van Allen belts and how are they related to Earth’s magnetic field?
What are auroras and how are they related to Earth’s magnetic field?
Does Earth’s magnetic field protect the planet from the solar wind?
