If magnetic lines are close what does this mean?

If magnetic lines are close, then the magnetic field has a lot of magnetic lines of force packed together. This translates into a large number of flux lines per unit of area through which they're passing. A large number of flux lines per unit area means a high field density. High flux density means the magnetic field is strong compared to a field where the flux lines are not as close together.


What correctly describes magnetic field lines?

The list of choices submitted with the question containsno correct description of magnetic field lines.


What are magnetic field lines and how do they show the strength of a magnet?

Magnetic fields are bascially lines of force caused by magnetic poles. It is invisible, but you can track how the field lines are formed doing a small experiment. Spread some iron fillings on a tray. Then bring a magnet up close to the iron fillings but not too close. You can observe that the iron fillings move into the field lines of the magnet that you brought up close. That's a miniature of a magnetic field. The earth's magnetic field is much bigger.


What direction does the magnetic compass point to?

the needle should point north unless your are close to another magnetic object which could interrupt it.


How could you change the direction in which a compass needle points using a cell and a piece of wire?

The compass will react to magnetic fields, and magnetic fields are caused by currents. Therefore, holding a current-carrying wire close to the compass is enough to change the direction in which it points.The compass will react to magnetic fields, and magnetic fields are caused by currents.

Contour lines that are close together on a topographic map indicate an area of steep slope. If they essentially overlap you have a cliff.

What are Isobars and what does it mean when they are close together?

It means that there is a steep gradient, or pressure change, and strong winds.


Which of the following correctly describe magnetic field line?

APEX: Field lines that are close together indicate a stronger magnetic field. They don't affect the magnet that created them. They never cross. They begin on north poles and end on south poles.


What does Contour lines that touch or overlap on a topographic indicate?

Lines that are very close together or touching indicate very steep terrain, perhaps even a cliff.


Is it possible to rotate a sphere of a size of namely tennis ball made of substance having magnetic properties but without touching it?

yes it is possible. if we take a magnet and get close to the ball having magnetic properties but not too close (if too close it will stick together) we can make the ball to rotate.


How can you indicate motian slopes are very steep on a topographic map?

The answer depends on what the word "motian" is meant to be.


Are bank cards affected by being next to another bank card?

The magnetic strips on the back of bank cards and credit cards can be affected by strong magnetic fields or being close to weak magnetic fields. When you keep credits cards in a wallet with magnetic strip touching or being very close together, it is possible for the magnetic strips to affect each making them unreadable. Even so, the credit cards can still be used by manually keying in the credit card number.
