Yes. In as much as the field lines are IMAGINARY lines in the first place - like the isostatic lines you see on a weather map - or the lines of longitude and latitude on the Earth's surface. Each line forms an unbroken circular interval - a loop - a closed circle, ellipse or a more complexly bent shape.

In fact, they actually form SHEETS in 3D space, in the forms of spheres - or distortions of spheres. They are defined from the 2nd of Maxwell's Equations - which reads, in english: " the surface integral of the magnetic field is zero," meaning, again, that it is a closed loop (or spheroid.)

Is it true or false that Magnetic field lines curve out from one pole and return to the same pole.?

False. Magnetic field lines emerge from the north pole of a magnet and curve around to enter the south pole, forming closed loops. They do not return to the same pole but rather connect the two poles, indicating the direction of the magnetic field.


Magnetic field lines curve out from one pole and return to the same pole true or false?

False. Magnetic field lines curve out from one pole, travel through the surrounding space, and then re-enter the magnet at the opposite pole.


Magnetic field lines curve out from one pole and return to the same pole?

No. Magnetic lines curve out from one pole and end up at the opposite pole. Please see the related links for illustrations.


What do you observe about the direction of field lines at N poles?

At the north poles of a magnet, the magnetic field lines emerge and point outward, indicating the direction in which the magnetic force would act on a positive magnetic charge. This means that the field lines are directed away from the north pole and curve around to enter the south pole. The density of these lines also indicates the strength of the magnetic field, with closer lines signifying a stronger field.


Do magnetic field lines close together indicate a weaker magnetic field?

No, magnetic field lines close together indicate a stronger magnetic field, while magnetic field lines farther apart indicate a weaker magnetic field. The density of field lines represents the strength of the magnetic field in that region.

Do magnetic field lines spread out from the poles and curve around to the other poles?

Yes, magnetic field lines spread out from one pole and curve around to the other pole in a closed loop. This creates a continuous path for the magnetic field to flow from one pole to the other, forming a complete circuit.


Why are magnetic field lines closed and continues curves?

Magnetic field lines are closed and continuous curves because they represent the direction of the force experienced by a magnetic north pole placed in that field. The lines form closed loops because magnetic field lines never start or end; they always form complete loops that return to their origin. This continuous nature of magnetic field lines reflects the continuous nature of magnetic fields in space.


How are magnetic field lines arranged?

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.

How are magnetic field lines affected by the presence of a bar magnet?

The magnetic field lines are influenced by the presence of a bar magnet, causing them to curve around the magnet from the north pole to the south pole in a continuous loop.


What do magnetic field lines look like when two magnets attract each other?

When two magnets attract each other, the magnetic field lines curve from one magnet to the other in a continuous loop, showing the path of the magnetic force between them.


Do magnetic field lines close together indicate a weaker magnetic field?

No, magnetic field lines close together indicate a stronger magnetic field, while magnetic field lines farther apart indicate a weaker magnetic field. The density of field lines represents the strength of the magnetic field in that region.


What do magnetic field lines look like when two magnets repel each other?

When two magnets repel each other, the magnetic field lines will curve away from each other, showing a pattern of lines that do not intersect and point in opposite directions.
