What do magnetic field lines look like when magnets repel each other?

Back

All field lines connect one pole of a magnet to the opposite pole of the same magnet, indicating a repelling force.

What is one of the two opposite ends of a magnet called?

Back

Magnetic pole.

Front

What occurs when two magnets are brought close together with like poles facing each other?

Back

They push each other away due to magnetic force.

What is the effect of a magnetic field on a charged particle moving through it?

Back

The charged particle experiences a force perpendicular to both its velocity and the magnetic field.

What is the principle behind magnetic levitation?

Back

Magnetic levitation occurs when the magnetic forces between two magnets are balanced, allowing an object to float.

How can you determine the strength of a magnetic field?

Back

The strength of a magnetic field can be determined by the density of the magnetic field lines; closer lines indicate a stronger field.
