Answer 1
A
INCORRECT
At point A the flux lines are not very close together. return to top
Answer 2
B
CORRECT
The field strength is the greatest where the flux lines are the closest together. At point B the flux lines are the closest. return to top
Answer 3
C
INCORRECT
Point C is on the flux line but is not in the region where the lines of flux are closest together. return to top
Answer 4
D
INCORRECT
At point D the flux lines are far from each other. return to top
