What to Focus On
- A compass needle is a small bar magnet.
- Magnetic field is the region where magnetic force can be detected.
- Field lines emerge from north and merge at south outside a magnet.
- Current-carrying wires produce magnetic fields.
- Around a straight wire, field lines are concentric circles.
- Reversing current reverses the field direction.
- A circular current loop produces a magnetic field with nearly straight lines at the centre.
- For n turns, the field is n times that of one turn.
- A solenoid is a coil of many turns in cylindrical shape.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
A current-carrying wire does not act like a magnet.
Magnetic field lines around a magnet go from north to south everywhere, including inside the magnet.
Magnetic field lines can intersect each other if the field is strong.
