Question

What is the name of the area surrounding earth that is influenced by earth's magnetic field?

Answer 1

Magnetosphere

Step-by-step explanation:

The magnetosphere is the region of space surrounding the earth where the dominant magnetic field is the magnetic field of the earth rather than the magnetic field of the interplanetary space. The magnetosphere is formed by the interaction of the solar wind with the earth's magnetic field. Life on the earth is dependent on the protection of this magnetic field. The magnetosphere shields earth from solar and cosmic particle radiation as well as the erosion of the atmosphere by the solar wind, and the constant flow of charged particles streaming off the sun.

Answer 2

The appropriate response is Magnetosphere. A magnetosphere is an area encompassing a planet where the planet's attractive field overwhelms. Since the particles in the sun powered plasma are charged, they connect with these attractive fields, and sun based wind particles are cleared around planetary magnetospheres.
