Define magnetic field lines. Describe an activity to draw a magnetic field line outside a bar magnet from one pole to another pole.
Answers
Answer:
the field lines which are surrounded with magnet and its force
Answer:
The magnetic field lines are the lines drawn in a magnetic field along which a north magnetic pole would move. The magnetic field lines are also known as magnetic lines of forces.
Activity to draw a magnetic field line outside a bar magnet from one pole to another pole:
Take a small compass and a bar magnet.
Place the magnet on a sheet of white paper fixed on a drawing board, using some adhesive material.
Mark the boundary of the magnet.
Place the compass near the north pole of the magnet. The south pole of the needle points towards the north pole of the magnet. The north pole of the compass is directed away from the north pole of the magnet.
Mark the position of two ends of the needle.Now move the needle to a new position such that its south pole occupies the position previously occupied by its north pole.
In this way, proceed step by step till you reach the south pole of the magnet .Join the points marked on the paper by a smooth curve. This curve represents a magnetic field line.
