multiple choice question
magnetic fields are represented by magnetic field lines drawn to indicate how
an electron would move if it were restricted to motion perpendicular to the center of a bar magnet
the north pole of a small magnet would respond at that point
an electron would move if it were free to move in any direction
the south pole of a small magnet would respond at that point
Magnetic field lines are used to represent the direction of the magnetic field. By convention, the direction of the magnetic field at a point is the direction in which the north pole of a small magnet (a compass needle) would point. So, magnetic field lines indicate how the north pole of a small magnet would respond at that point.
