MCQ
Space surrounding a magnet in which magnetic force is executed, is called a:
- AElectric field.
- BMagnetic field.
- CNorth field.
- DAll.
✓
Answer
- Magnetic field.
Explanation:
Space surrounding a magnet in which magnetic force is executed, is called a magnetic field.
A magnetic field is a vector field that describes the magnetic influence of electrical currents and magnetized materials. In everyday life, the effects of magnetic fields are most readily encountered with nearby permanent magnets, which pull on magnetic materials (such as iron) and attract or repel other magnets.
