Description
This video demonstrates how you can detect and draw a magnetic field using some iron filings, a compass and a magnet. You’ll notice that the arrows on your lines always point from the north to the south pole. The lines are drawn closest together at the poles, showing us that the magnetic field is strongest at the poles.
