    How can the neutral outer core generate a magnetic field?

    Okay I can understand the neutrality. However does that mean the Earth's outer core has a electrical current?

    How can the neutral outer core generate a magnetic field?

    Even if the outer core is convecting and conductive it is still charge neutral, so how can a Magnetic field be generated? Maxwells Equation say there needs to be net charge moving for a Magnetic field to be generated.

    Many Worlds based on the observer effect

    Hi, I understand that some people believe in the many worlds interpretation because of the probabilistic nature of quantum mechanics but couldn't another many worlds exist under the observer effect. I'll give a thought experiment using the double slit. When bob measures the measures electrons...

    Force Carrier for Electromagnetism

    Can anybody give me or point me to a model that describes how electromagnetism works from a photon force carrier perspective. I like to know how the virtual photons are generated around an electron. Also why electromagnetism is polar. I am also confused why moving electric fields create magnetic...

    Question about Quantum Computers

    Hello Everyone I was hoping someone can answer how quantum computers work. I understand how digital logic works such as in AND gates and OR gates, but I am not sure how quantum physics wave functions can make this any faster. I was thinking maybe because whenever a piece of matter has the...

    How Virtual Particles Give Rise to the electromagnetic force

    Hello, Recently I have learned that magnetism causes the Lorentz force. The electric force makes sense to me in terms of virtual photons. But how do virtual photons give rise to magnetism and the Lorentz force. Is it because when the charged particle moves through an magnetic field it comes...

    Quantum Entanglement FTL Thought Experiment

    I am not sure if I understand quantum entanglement so I will propose a thought experiment which you can tell me if it is correct Say I entangle two quanta of matter, such that by observing one I collapse the wave function of the other immediately. Then I give one of the particles still in...
