- The magnetic field can be represented with the help of a set of lines or curves called magnetic lines of force or magnetic field lines.
Properties of magnetic field line:
- The magnetic field line is directed from the north pole to the south pole outside and south to the north inside the magnet.
- Magnetic field lines are closed and continuous.
- Magnetic field lines are more crowded near poles which shows that the strength of the magnetic field is maximum at its poles.
- Magnetic field lines never intersect with each other.
The reason being is that if two field lines intersect each other, then there will be two directions of the magnetic field, which is not possible.
