prove experimentally that the earth is big magnet.

The following observation proves that earth has a huge magnet within it:

The alignment of a freely suspended magnet is influenced by the earth’s magnetic field. Our earth is assumed to have a strong magnet with south pole near the geographic north pole and the north pole of the magnet near the geographic south pole. This is why when a magnet is freely suspended, the north pole of the magnet points towards the geographic north pole of earth.

We considered earth as huge magnet. we know that like poles repel and unlike poles attract. If magnetic needle of compass attract to earth 's north pole, => the magnetic south pole of earth is its geographical north pole.
