Question

Why don’t two magnetic lines of force intersect each other? [2 MARKS]


Open in App
Solution

Explanation: 2 Marks

The magnetic compass aligns itself along the lines of forces. So if two lines intersect each other then it means magnetic needle will point at two different directions simultaneously which is not possible. Hence this cannot happen.
