Two magnetic lines of force can never intersect each other because if they do so , at the point of intersection two tangents can be drawn and the compass needle would give two directions of magnetic field at the same point .

Since , magnetic field is a vector quantity , having different directions at a same point is not possible . Hence , two magnetic lines of force never intersect each other .

Some other information :

  1. Two electric lines of force too never intersect each other .
  2. Magnetic field lines are continuous and closed curves .
  3. Magnetic field lines density is more near the poles where its strength is more .
  4. They emerge from the north pole and terminate at south pole .

Answer:

hey mate here is your answer...

Explanation:

➡️ If the two magnetic lines of force intersect each other it would mean that there are two directions of the magnetic field at the point of intersection, which is not possible.

Hope it helps!☺️
