Question

Why can a closed surface not enclose a net magnetic “charge” in the way it can enclose electric charge?

Options

  • Net electric flux through every closed surface is zero.

  • No isolated north pole or isolated south pole has been observed.

  • The area of every closed surface is zero.

  • Magnetic field lines are open-ended lines.

Solution

No isolated north pole or isolated south pole has been observed. Magnetic field lines form closed loops, so a closed surface cannot enclose a net magnetic “charge” like electric charge.
