The magnetic field lines emerge from the north poles to south poles.Why its always true this event? i expect your answers please... :confused:
 
Physics news on Phys.org
i think it mite b a law of polarities? north go to south@_@ like positive go to negative electrons
 
If there's NO magnetic field piercing a surface (inward or outward),
then it is not a pole at all.

If Magnetic field comes outward through some surface,
we could call that surface a North pole ... (or it is NEAR a North pole).

Most precisely, that surface area has "positive magnetic flux" outward.

The opposite is for magnetic field piercing INto a surface ...
call it a South Pole, or surrface Area with negative magnetic flux.

As a definition ... why does this bother you?
