Suppose that the magnetic dipole moment of Earth is 8.6 x 1025 J/T. (a) If the origin of this magnetism were a magnetized iron sphere
at the center of Earth, what would be its radius? (b) What fraction of the volume of Earth would such a sphere occupy? The radius of
Earth is 6.37 x 106 m. Assume complete alignment of the dipoles. The density of Earth's inner core is 13 g/cm³. The magnetic dipole
moment of an iron atom is 2.1 × 10-23 J/T. Iron has a molar mass of 55.9 g/mol. (Note: Earth's inner core is in fact thought to be in
both liquid and solid forms and partly iron, but a permanent magnet as the source of Earth's magnetism has been ruled out by
several considerations. For one, the temperature is certainly above the Curie point.)
