How do the iron filings behave when sprinkled over the bar or horseshoe magnet?
spread out from one pole and curve around to the other
What do we call the lines of force surrounding a magnet?
A magnetic Field
What is the invisible force around a magnet called?
Have you ever seen a magnet? Did you see the field? There you go. While you can't see the field itself directly, you can see the effects of the field if you use iron filings or something like that; they'll line up with the magnetic field lines
Why does stroking a material with a magnet make it magnetised?
because the magnet causes particles called electrons in the atoms of the nail to align along the magnet's lines of force. The atoms with aligned electrons then act like tiny bar magnets themselves.
Where is the field around a magnet is the strongest and where it is the weakest?
This shows the field lines around a disk magnet where the North pole is at the top. This shows the magnetic field strength around the disk magnet. Again, it is strongest in the corners, not in the center of the poles! The magnetic field is weakest in the middle of its poles!
What are the lines of force around a magnet?
the imaginary lines around the magnet is a magnitic field and strong
What do the lines around a bar magnet?
magnetic lines of force
What type of filing that's most often used to demonstrate the lines of magnetic force around a magnet is?
Iron filings will demonstrate the lines of magnetic force around a magnet.
Imaginary lines of force around a magnet?
Magnetic Field!
A magnet with many lines of force?
a magnet with many lines of force is STRONG
What is electromagnetic flux?
The electromagnetic force is a force that is expressed as (or that "shows up as") a "field" or a "group of lines of force" around the source. Electromagnetic flux is a direct reference to those magnetic lines of force. Electromagnetic flux is the electromagnetic field or the group of electromagnetic lines of force around the source. All the following sentences say the same thing: The electromagnetic flux around the magnet was very high. The magnetic flux around the magnet was very high. The magnetic field around the magnet was very large. The flux around the magnet was very high. The field around the magnet was very large. There were a large number of magnetic lines of force around the magnet making the field strength very high.
What is the area around a magnet that has the force of magnetism called?
The magnetic field surrounds the magnet. The lines of magnetic force repel each other, ultimately forming a sphere of decreasing strength.
The unseen lines of force round a magnet are called?
Magnetic flux
Who discovered magnetic lines of flux?
Faraday, proposed lines of flux and lines of force.
What are lines called that map out the magnets field around the magnet?
They are called the magnetic field lines.
What are the lines called that the map out the magnetic field around a magnet?
They are called the magnetic field lines.
What is the area around the magnet called?
The volume surrounding a magnet will be filled with the lines of magnetic force. Since these are similarly polarized, they repel each other - eventually creating a sphere at a sufficiently large distance. This sphere is the magnetic field of that magnet.
