    Yes it would. Earth produces a magnetic field therefore is considered to be a large magnet, also it has a sphere like shape and it has two poles.

    well.... i am not quite sure.... but i figure that a sphere may have poles but cos its a sphere, maybe the mutual forces may cancel each other and the net magnetic moment will be zero.

    will do sum further study and let u know....

    numerous magnets are made in around shapes- the magnetic tension container is concentrated into the around middle, particularly than on the top such as you often think of of a bar or a horseshoe magnet

    Size is your answer. And as soon as you move a pole with in a round magnet. It re-aligns it pattern and then becomes useless.

    Yes, but you can't determine where it will be
