MCQ
Magnetic field can be defined as the:
  • A
    Space surrounding the magnet in which magnetic force acts.
  • B
    Space surrounding the magnet in which electric force acts.
  • C
    Space surrounding the magnet in which no force acts.
  • D
    None.

Answer

  1. Space surrounding the magnet in which magnetic force acts.

Explanation:

A magnetic field is generated when electric charge carriers such as electrons move through space or within an electrical conductor. It is the space surrounding the magnet in which magnetic force acts. Its intensity is represented by magnetic lines of force.
