Question
The ilfustration below is similar to Figure 24.2 in your textbook. Iron filings trace out patterns of magnetic field lines about a bar magnet. In the field are some magnetic compasses. The compass needle in only one compass is shown. Draw in the needles with proper orientation in the other compasses.
Solution
The first step in solving 24 problem number 11 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: The ilfustration below is similar to Figure 24.2 in your textbook.
