Question

Statements given below are incorrect. Write the correct statements.

The strength of magnetic field around a bar magnet increase with the increase in distance from it.

Answer 1

1. A magnetic field is defined as the curved lines of force surrounding a bar magnet.
2. If any magnetic substance is brought near this field it will get attracted towards the magnet.
3. This field becomes weaker as the distance from the bar magnet increases, and this field is the strongest near the bar magnet.

So, the correct statement is,

The strength of magnetic field around a bar magnet decrease with the increase in distance from it.
