From which direction do the magnetic lines emerge?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. North pole.

  • The lines of force of the magnetic field always emerge from the North Pole and end at the South Pole. These lines extend from the south to the north pole within the magnet, and outside, they extend from the south to the north pole.
  • Magnetic field lines are imaginary lines drawn to show both the direction and strength of a magnetic field. They emerge from the north pole of a magnet, loop through space, and enter the south pole, forming continuous closed curves. The density of these lines indicates field strength; the closer they are, the stronger the field at that location.
