Magnetic field lines spread out from one pole, curve around the magnet, and return to the other pole.
. . ah, they don't actually spread out from the poles, inside the magnet they are bunched together but they still form closed loops with the lines outside.

∙ 8y ago1. magnetic field lines are closed loops and the direction of field varies from north pole to south pole.
2. These field lines never intersect with each other as at the point of their intersection the field vector takes two directions.
3. magnetic fields are strong when field lines are concentrated and vice versa.(Strongest when they are at the poles)
4. the strength of field is maximum at poles

What best describes magnetic field lines?
Magnetic fields are produced because of moving electric charges, and visualizing the very complex mathematical relationships that fall under the magnetic field might become much easier if magnetic field lines were used. A higher density of field lines means a stronger magnetic field. Keep in mind that those lines do not actually exist; they are drawn only to visualize the strength of the magnetic field.
A loop of wire is placed in a uniform magnetic field.In which orientation of the loop is the magnetic flux linked with it maximum?
1. The orientation giving the maximum magnetic flux would be 90 degrees or perpendicular to the magnetic field because that gives the maximum amount of magnetic field lines able to pass through the area of the coil. The greater density of field lines gives a greater magnetic field. The orientation that would give a magnetic flux of zero is the plane of the coil to be parallel to the magnetic field, making no lines pass through the coil and thus no flux.
Choose the best description of a magnetic field line AMagnetic field lines always point north BA magnetic field line shows the direction a compass needle would point CMagnetic field lines?
From that list, I'll have to go with 'B'.
At what degree does a conductor have to pass through a magnetic field to get maximum induced current?
The induced current is maximum when the axis of the conductor, its velocity, and the magnetic field lines are all mutually perpendicular.
Region around a magnet in which magnetic force can act?
Magnetic freild
A current in a long straight wire produces a magnetic field. These magnetic field lines?
The magnetic field lines are arranged circularly around the wire.
What are the lines called that map out the magnetic field around magnetic?
They are called the magnetic field lines.
Where do magnetic field lines cross?
Magnetic field lines don't cross.
A magnetic field is described by magnetic lines of?
Lines of Force
What are the lines called that the map out the magnetic field around a magnet?
They are called the magnetic field lines.
What type of magnetic field lines represent uniform magnetic field?
straight parallel lines
What does the relative density of lines of a magnetic field tell us about the strength of the field?
The closer the lines the stronger the magnetic field.
What is a magnetic field made up of?
Magnetic field is made up of magnetic lines.
Where is the magnetic force the greatest on a magnet?
The magnetic force of a magnet is strongest at its poles. This is because the field lines of the magnetic field are most concentrated at the poles where they enter and leave the magnet. At the poles the magnetic field is strongest and the force is the greatest. The north pole is where the magnetic field lines enter the magnet. The south pole is where the magnetic field lines leave the magnet. The magnetic field lines are most concentrated at the poles. The magnetic force is greatest at the poles.
Do magnetic field lines close together indicate a weaker magnetic field?
no they are not
How could straight copper wire produce magnetic field lines?
The copper by itself will do nothing of the sort. It will be surrounded by magnetic field lines if a current flows through it. It is the current that produces the magnetic field lines.
