i need some help with a science question about solar winds, and earth's magnetic field. HELP????

solar wind is basically streams of charged particles so energetic, they take the form of plasma.

we might be able to survive, unfortunately cosmic rays from sources much more sinister than the sun were also diverted by that magnetic field.

if we did survive our electrical systems probably wouldn't work. seems we would be technically somewhere around the pre-industrial era. that would suck. that might seem shocking or that might seem impractical but the truth is that basically modern homosapien evolved in what has been an amazing 10,000 year long, Goldilocks-Just-Right-Climate. i dunno i think im kinda having an existential crisis right now

The solar wind consists of highly charged subatomic particles which the sun emits, especially during solar "storms" known as solar "flares". Because the particles are charged, they are repelled by the earth's magnetic field and never reach the ground.

If they did, there would be an increase in the levels of radiation, since the charged particles are radioactive. This would probably increase radiation caused cancers such as leukemia. The particles which didn't reach the surface would skim the upper atmosphere and the earth's oxygen and water would begin to be lost. In several million years there would be very little water or air left on earth and the planet would be a dry, cold desert.

4 billion years ago it is thought Mars had a magnetic field, a dense atmosphere and liquid water on the surface. This was because the planet had a liquid iron core which generated a magnetic field. The core solidified, the field stopped and mars lost it's oceans and atmosphere. The earth's iron core is still liquid and generates a magnetic field.

i dont think it stops solar wind it effects particle carried by solar winds the particles come down at the poles and cause the aruoras.the light of solar wind still come through.
