Describe an activity to demonstrate that abar magnet has a magnetic field around it.

Answer»

Solution :To observe magnetic filed lines around a bar magnet :
FIGURE : PATTERN formed by iron filingsaround a bar magnet represents its magnetic filed.
1] Stick a white sheet on a drawing board USING gunor glue.
2] Placea bar magnet at thecentre of the sheet.
3] Spread some iron FILINGS uniformly around the bar magnet using salt sprinkler .
Tap theboard gently and observe the patternformed.
Inference : The iron filingsexperience magnetic force exerted by the magnet. Hence ,t hey arrangethemselvesin a pattern consisting of lines which represent magneticlines of force.Theregion surroundingthe magnet in which these lines of force can be DETECTED constitutemagnetic fieldproduced by the magnet.
