प्रश्न
A circuit contains a battery, a variable resistor and a solenoid. The figure below shows the magnetic field pattern produced by the current in the solenoid.

- State how the magnetic field pattern indicates regions where the magnetic field is stronger.
- What happens to the magnetic field when the current in the circuit is reversed?

उत्तर
- Relative closeness of field lines indicates the strength of magnetic field. Since field lines are crowded around the ends of the solenoid, hence these are the regions of strongest magnetism.
- The direction of the field will also be reversed.
