describe how could you use iron fillings to plot a magnetic field pattern??​

Answer 1

i hope it is correct anawer

Answer 2

Answer:

A magnet creates a magnetic field around it. You cannot see a magnetic field, but you can observe its effects. A force is exerted on a magnetic material brought into a magnetic field. The force is a non-contact force because the magnet and the material do not have to touch each other.

You can use a plotting compass or iron filings to detect a magnetic field:

1.put a piece of paper over a magnet (this stops the iron filings sticking to the magnet)

2.sprinkle iron filings onto the paper.

3.gently tap the paper to spread the filings out.

4.observe and record the results.

Hope this helps you.
