What do the magnetic lines of force of a magnet look like? And how do they change with respect to the surroundings?
Below are some examples of magnetic lines of force of a magnet.
- Magnetic lines of force of a disc magnet in free space
- Magnetic lines of force of a disc magnet when a thin steel plate is placed on one side
- Magnetic lines of force of a disc magnet when a thin steel plate is placed on both sides
- Magnetic lines of force when two disc magnets are placed together
- Magnetic lines of force when two disc magnets attract each other at close range
- Magnetic lines of force when two disc magnets repel each other at close range
