What is magnetism...interesting for you flat earthers out there. Earth is a ball.

In the northern hemisphere the needle points to north, in the south it points to the south. On or at the (true middle) "equator" it doesnt point north or south.
If you look at a magnet and cut it in half it will always have a point in the middle where north and south poles blend together. And you can slice the magnet any number of times and it will always have a north, south and neutral middle in every piece no matter how big or thin.

Earth has the same properties....its nothing but a magnet.

Are you pulled to the North Pole?

Nope but metallic objects are.
However you are pulled to the center of the magnet (earth).

Do you know of any metalic objects other than ferrous metals that are magnetic? I don't think gravity and magnetism are the same. Gravity pulls equally on non magnetic objects as it does on magnetic objects.

Yes I know that.

Further the Moon and Mars have gravity pull that is equivalent to their mass despite not having any magnetic fields, so it is obviously two different forces. However since we don't have any current understanding what creates gravity attraction (in relation to mass), one should at least entertain an electromagnetic origin of gravity fields.

Electricity and magnetism is characterized by polarity, where are the polar opposites of gravity sources? One appears to be center of mass (in this case center of Earth), where is the other pole?

center and extents poles are traceable.

interior/exterior

there is relativity, imo. just not proven.

Actually I meant to direct that question to 7thTrump.

Other than iron what other metalic objects are magnetic?

All matter is particles created from collapsed waves of pure energy.

All matter has gravity.

All matter has mass.

No energy has mass.

No energy has gravity.

all matter is magnetic.
