What are the three main types of models used to understand magnetic fields?

Conceptual, mathematical, and numerical

What does the spacing between magnetic field lines indicate?

The strength of the magnetic field

What do arrows on magnetic field lines show?

Direction of force on a north pole

Why can magnetic field lines never cross each other?

Only one direction of force at any point

In the electron model, what happens when an external magnetic field is removed from a material?

Some domains stay aligned - magnetised

What is the formula for magnetic field around a long straight current-carrying wire?

B=μ0I2πrB = \frac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi r}

Number of turns in the solenoid

What is a key limitation of the wire model B=μ0I2πrB = \frac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi r}?

Only works for very long wires

What are analytical solutions in physics?

Solving equations mathematically first

When would physicists use numerical models instead of analytical solutions?

When equations are too difficult to solve
