In the case of bar magnet, lines of magnetic induction
Correct answer: B. Run continuously through the bar and outside
- A. Start from the north pole and end at the south pole
- B. Run continuously through the bar and outside
- C. Emerge in circular paths from the middle of the bar
- D. Are produced only at the north pole like rays of light from a bulb
Explanation
The correct answer is that lines of magnetic induction run continuously through the bar and outside. Magnetic field lines form closed loops, indicating that they do not have a beginning or an end. Outside the magnet, they travel from the north pole to the south pole, while inside, they continue from the south pole back to the north pole. This continuous loop structure is fundamental to understanding magnetic fields. Option A is incorrect because it suggests that field lines start and end at the poles, which is misleading. Option C is incorrect as it suggests emergence in circular paths from the middle, which does not happen. Option D is incorrect because it implies that field lines are only produced at the north pole, which is not true, as they form loops.

About Physics of Solids
Solids are compared through crystal structure, amorphous arrangement, elasticity, plastic deformation, stress, strain and Young’s modulus. Electrical behavior depends on available charge carriers and band structure, so conductors, insulators and semiconductors must be distinguished from mechanical properties such as strength, stiffness and brittleness.
