A region around a magnetic material or a moving electric charge within which the force of magnetism acts. This is called magnetic field A magnetic field line or also known as magnetic flux line which shows the direction of a magnet's force and the strength of a magnet Ex: Iron fillings placed in a magnetic field lines that correspond to field lines Hope it helps Mark me as brainliest

A magnetic field is a vector force field. At every point around a magnet there is a force with a direction and magnitude specific to that location.
Magnetic field lines are a method for visualizing the shape and strength of the field. Since at least the early 1800's, magnetic fields have been studied by placing a sheet of paper over the magnet and sprinkling iron filings on the paper. The field magnetizes the filings, which align themselves with the local field. Being magnetized, they also attract one another, and gather into chains or lines.
The lines are good in that they make it possible to see the alignment of the filings. They are bad in that they make it appear that the field consists of discrete lines when it is actually continuous.
Magnetic field lines are a very useful tool for visualizing the field, but they are not real.
