Which of the following (related to drawing magnetic field lines around a magnet) are false?[Select ALL that apply]Group of answer choiceshave arrows that point from S-->Nhave arrows that point from N-->Smagnetic field lines cross each otherjoin opposite poles
Solution
The false statements related to drawing magnetic field lines around a magnet are:
-
Have arrows that point from S-->N: This is false because magnetic field lines always point from the North pole to the South pole (N-->S), not the other way around.
-
Magnetic field lines cross each other: This is also false. Magnetic field lines never cross each other. Each line is an indication of the direction a north pole would move in the field and two directions at a point would be contradictory.
So, the false statements are "have arrows that point from S-->N" and "magnetic field lines cross each other".
