Question:
While objects can be charged positively or negatively, magnets exist in dipoles consisting of the north and south poles. By convention, magnetic field lines are in forms or directed arcs coming from the north pole and hitting the south. Small compasses traditionally depict the magnetic field (see the simulation). However, the tiny compasses should instead be represented by short vectors showing the resultant instantaneous intensity of the field at specific locations. Magnetic field strength, expressed in Tesla's (T), can be measured using a meter. a) Identify a location when the magnetic field has a minimum vertical component Label the point on the diagram and write the components of the field using unit vector notation B=____________________________ b) Is it possible to find a location on the diagram with a zeroth vertical component of the field and a max horizontal?__________You can use the more significant compass to test the field first.
