Discuss the concept of geomagnetism and explain the impact of the recent shift in the Earth’s magnetic pole.10 marks

Mentor’s comment-

  • In the introduction briefly explain geomagnetism and mention the facts related to recent shift in Earth’s magnetic pole.
  • In the body explain the aspects of geomagnetism. Discuss the shift and the impact of the shift in detail. Explain how these changes can affect health and safety, and economic well-being in a myriad of ways like they can hamper navigation and surveying techniques, affects the power of Earth’s magnetic field to deflect harmful solar radiation and cosmic rays from entering Earth’s atmosphere etc.
  • Conclude with the need to understand such geophysical changes for better understanding of the Earth.

      Hi Deepika
      Good introduction.
      Use of diagram is appreciable.
      Some good points in the impact of the shift, but need to add more ,you can write –
      -Shifting would bother some birds that use magnetic fields to navigate.
      -Very highly charged particles can have a deleterious effect on the satellites and astronauts.
      -Issues for the entire transportation sector and military as they depends on magnetic north for navigation purposes.
      Good conclusion.
      Keep writing !

      Hi Dakshina
      Rephrase your introduction, refrain from long sentences.
      Use of diagram is appreciable.
      You have explained the recent changes in a good manner.
      Impact of the shift is well explained.
      Good conclusion.
      The content is good and well placed.
      Improve your handwriting.
      Keep writing, you will succeed.

      Hi Parakh
      Try to write in simple language, like geomagnetism is the study of the dynamics of the
      Earth’s magnetic field, which is produced in the outer core.
      Good diagram.
      Give proper headings and subheadings to present your answer in a batter way.
      Some good points in the impact of the shift, but need to add more ,you can write –
      -Constant shift is a problem for compasses in smartphones and some consumer electronics.
      -Very highly charged particles can have a deleterious effect on the satellites and astronauts.
      -Issues for the entire transportation sector and military as they depends on magnetic north for navigation purposes.
      -Electric grid collapse from severe solar storms is a major risk.
      Good conclusion.
      Work on your handwriting.
      Work hard, you will succeed.

      Hi Amandeep
      Good introduction.
      Refrain from monotony, use headings and subheadings, and underline keywords to fetch better marks.
      Lack of content in the impact part,
      You can write –
      -Constant shift is a problem for compasses in smartphones and some consumer electronics.
      -Very highly charged particles can have a deleterious effect on the satellites and astronauts.
      -Issues for the entire transportation sector and military as they depends on magnetic north for navigation purposes.
      -Electric grid collapse from severe solar storms is a major risk.
      -Shifting would bother some birds that use magnetic fields to navigate.
      -Very highly charged particles can have a deleterious effect on the satellites and astronauts.
      You can make a diagram of geomagnetism.
      In conclusion you have written that this phenomena will only have minor effects, this is blunder mistake. Make sure your facts are right.
      Work hard !

      Hi Chester
      Lackluster introduction, simply explain what geomagnetism is . You can write that geomagnetism is the study of the dynamics of the Earth’s magnetic field, which is produced in the outer core.
      There is no need to write impact of geomagnetism two times.
      Mention the recent shift then explain its impact.
      The question is pretty straightforward .
      Use of diagrams is good but try to make them little more accurate.
      Need to add points in the impact part, you can write-
      -Constant shift is a problem for compasses in smartphones and some consumer electronics.
      -Very highly charged particles can have a deleterious effect on the satellites and astronauts.
      -Issues for the entire transportation sector and military as they depends on magnetic north for navigation purposes.
      -Electric grid collapse from severe solar storms is a major risk.
      -Shifting would bother some birds that use magnetic fields to navigate.
      Good conclusion.
      Keep writing, you will succeed.

      sir please comment about writing also,, ok or need to improve more??

      Hi Uttam
      Good introduction.
      Use of diagram is good but try to make it little more accurate.
      In the impact, you have simply written the points , explain them in one or two lines .
      For example you have written that it will impact navigation, explain the reason that navigation depends on magnetic north for direction.
      Do not write way forward here, simply conclude with the need to understand such geophysical changes for better understanding of the Earth.
      Avoid spelling mistakes.
      Handwriting is fine, need to improve presentation of the answer to get better marks.
      Keep working hard.

      Hi PS
      In the introduction, first explain what geomagnetism is.
      Then write about the recent shift.
      Follow a proper structure .
      Refrain from monotony, use headings and subheadings to fetch better marks.
      You have explained the impact of the shift in a decent manner.
      Lackluster conclusion, conclude with the need to understand such geophysical changes for better understanding of the Earth.
      Scan your sheet in proper light.
      Keep writing, you will succeed.
