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.

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 field lines need that are close together indicate a weaker magnetic field?

No, field lines that are close together indicate a stronger magnetic field, not a weaker one. The density of field lines represents the strength of the magnetic field in that region.


What happens when a magnets magnetic field lines are close together?

When a magnet's magnetic field lines are close together, it indicates a strong magnetic field. The magnetic field strength is higher, leading to more intense interactions with nearby objects and potentially stronger magnetic forces acting between the magnet and other magnetic materials.


What do close flux lines indicate?

There is more magnetic force in that region on a particle.


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 are magnetic lines of force called?

Magnetic lines of force are called magnetic field lines.


What correctly describes magnetic field lines?

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


What are the lines called that map out the magnetic field around magnetic?

They are called the magnetic field lines.


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.


How tightly packed the magnetic lines tells us?

The density of magnetic field lines indicates the strength of the magnetic field. More closely packed lines suggest a stronger magnetic field, while widely spaced lines suggest a weaker field in that region. The direction of the magnetic field is indicated by the orientation of the field lines.


Where do magnetic field lines cross?

Magnetic field lines don't cross.


Are the lines that map out the magnetic field around a magnet?

The lines that map out the magnetic field around a magnet are called magnetic field lines. These lines indicate the direction of the magnetic field and its strength at different points around the magnet. Magnetic field lines are closest together where the magnetic field is strongest and they form closed loops that do not intersect.
