electromagnetism - Even if molten iron is ionized & spins . . . how does it make a mag field?


They keep saying that spinning molten iron generates Earth's magnetic field. But, even if that iron is somewhat ionized, those two lost electrons are still nearby in the fluid. So the spin of the ++ and the spin of the -- should cancel out any magnetic field they'd generate.

Understanding Stagnation point in pitot fluid

What is stagnation point in fluid mechanics. At the open end of the pitot tube the velocity of the fluid becomes zero.But that should result...
