The magnetic field flows from the north pole to the south pole in a loop, creating a continuous path of magnetic force.

What pole do magnetic field originate?

Magnetic fields originate from the north and south poles of a magnet or a magnetic material. These poles generate magnetic flux lines that flow from the north pole to the south pole, creating a magnetic field around the magnet.


Do magnetic fields line flow?

Magnetic field lines represent the direction and strength of the magnetic field at different points in space. They form closed loops and flow from the north pole to the south pole outside of a magnet, and from the south pole to the north pole inside the magnet.


How do magnetic fields flow from north to south?

Magnetic fields flow from north to south in a continuous loop, with the lines of force moving outward from the north pole and curving back towards the south pole. This creates a closed loop pattern that allows the magnetic field to circulate and interact with other magnetic fields.


What does the direction of the magnetic field depend on?

The direction of the magnetic field depends on the direction of the flow of electric charges. It follows the right-hand rule, where the thumb represents the current flow and the fingers represent the direction of the magnetic field lines.


Is the magnetic pole near the Earths true North Pole a magnetic south pole or a magnetic north pole?

Earths geographic North Pole is also currently a magnetic north pole. This is however not always the case because over geological time scales the Earth's magnetic poles flip as a result of changes of flow in Earth's molten core which produces Earth's magnetic field.


Which direction does magnetic fields flow?

I think it is a mistake to refer to magnetic field 'flowing. Magnetic fields just are, they can change, and these disturbances might move in space, but the field itself does not flow. That being said, and assuming you meant to ask in which direction a magnetic field points the answer is that a magnetic field points towards the south pole of a magnet and away from the north pole. A magnetic field cannot be divergent (i.e. there are no sources) and any field line must be closed.


Are the magnetic field lines open or closed curves?

Magnetic field lines are closed curves, meaning they form continuous loops that originate from the north pole and loop back to the south pole of a magnet. This represents the continuous flow of the magnetic field in a closed loop.


Every magnet regardless of its shape has two what?

Every magnet, regardless of shape, has two poles: a north pole and a south pole. Magnetic field lines flow from the north pole to the south pole.


How does a tangent at any point on the magnetic field line show the direction of magnetic field at that point?

The tangent to a magnetic field line at any point indicates the direction of the magnetic field at that specific location. This is because the tangent line represents the direction a compass needle would point if placed at that point on the field line. The magnetic field lines themselves flow from the north pole of a magnet to its south pole, with the tangent pointing in the direction the magnetic field would act on a north pole.


What happens to the magnetic field around a wire if you reverse the connection between the wire and the poles in a battery?

If you reverse the connection between the wire and the battery poles, the direction of the magnetic field around the wire will also reverse. This is because the flow of current through the wire determines the direction of the magnetic field according to the right-hand rule.


What happens to the magnetic field of a wire when you change the direction of the current of the wire?

If iron piece is place in its field, the direction of the magnetic lines of force change towards North and South as in the case of a magnet. North represents North Pole and South for South Pole.


Why does the magnetosphere change shape?

Earth's magnetic field (and the surface magnetic field) is approximately a magnetic dipole, with one pole near the north pole and the other near the geographic south pole. The Inner Van Allen Belt & Outer Van Allen Belt cause the magnetic field.
