I have completed I need help drawing the lines on my paper for I also have provided my lab with the magnet on its side and flat
Open the lab equipment and take out the diskshaped permanent magnet and the bag of little compasses. Set the magnet on edge the way a coin will not stand in the center of a blank piece of paper resting on a tabletop. Arrange the compasses all around the magnet as equally spaced as possible. Look at the directions of the compass needles, and move them around to see how they respond relative to the orientation of the magnet, in order to get a sense of how the invisible magnetic field lines are directed around the magnet. On your paper, draw the field lines surrounding the magnet by using the compass needle directions to guide you. You must have each compass sitting on one of the drawn field lines so that the relative orientations are seen. Q: What is the relationship between the compass needles and the orientation of the field lines? Knock the magnet over onto one of its faces. Q: Is there any order to the direction of the compass needles now? Please explain.
