Practice question · True or false
Magnetic field lines always form closed loops (they have no beginning or end).
Hints
- Ask whether an isolated magnetic pole has ever been found.
- Field lines can only end where a source of that kind exists.
Show the answer
True
Why
= 0: no magnetic monopoles exist, so field lines are always closed.
