Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFThe correct answer is From S-pole to N-pole of the magnet.Key Points
- The magnetic lines of force inside a bar magnet run from the South pole to the North pole of the magnet.
- This is because the magnetic field is oriented in such a way that it flows from the South pole to the North pole.
- The strength of the magnetic field is greatest at the poles of the magnet and gradually decreases as you move away from them.
- The orientation of the magnetic field is determined by the orientation of the magnetic domains within the magnet, not its shape or size.
Additional Information
- Magnetic lines of force are also known as magnetic field lines or flux lines.
- They represent the direction and strength of the magnetic field at each point in space.
- The direction of the magnetic field is defined as the direction that a compass needle would point if placed at that point in space.
- The strength of the magnetic field is proportional to the density of the magnetic field lines, with more lines indicating a stronger field.
- Magnetic fields are created by the movement of electric charges, such as the flow of electrons in a wire or the spinning of electrons within atoms.
