Antacids may be used: 1  To reduce the symptoms of acid reflux which may cause heartburn or inflammation of the gullet (oesophagitis) . 2  These conditions are sometimes called gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD). 3  To relieve some of the symptoms caused by ulcers in the stomach and part of the gut called the duodenum.
Earthâs magnetic field is generated by an interaction between rotation in the planetâs core and electrical currents.The field then creates the magnetosphere, which acts sort of like a force field, protecting the planet from the brunt of the sun's solar wind.arthâs magnetic field is generated by an interaction between rotation in the planetâs core and electrical currents.
As Ampere suggested, a magnetic field is produced whenever an electrical charge is in motion. The spinning and orbiting of the nucleus of an atom produces a magnetic field as does electrical current flowing through a wire. The direction of the spin and orbit determine the direction of the magnetic field. The strength of this field is called the magnetic moment. The motion of an electric charge producing a magnetic field is an essential concept in understanding magnetism. The magnetic moment of an atom can be the result of the electron's spin, which is the electron orbital motion and a change in the orbital motion of the electrons caused by an applied magnetic field.
