Without the effects caused by the spinning Earth, the magnetic fields generated within the liquid core would cancel one another out and result in no distinct north or south magnetic poles.

Like bar magnets, Earth has a north magnetic pole and a south magnetic pole. The lines of Earth’s magnetic field point from one pole to the other. When the solar wind approaches Earth ...

But it’s more important than you might think. The Earth acts like a giant bar magnet, with a magnetic north and south pole. Confusingly, these are not in the same place as the geographic north ...
