The magnetic flux is a _ quantity.
Correct answer: A. Scalar
- A. Scalar
- B. Vector
- C. Vector in some cases
- D. Scalar in some cases
Explanation
Magnetic flux, which tells us about the number of field lines that cross the surface, is a scalar. It is the dot product of two vectors.

About Electromagnetism
Magnetic flux density and magnetic flux describe the strength of a magnetic field and the field passing through a surface. A charged particle moving through a magnetic field experiences a force perpendicular to its velocity and may follow circular or helical motion, depending on the angle between velocity and field.
