Trying to understand solenoids and magnets a little better but have some questions
Solenoids usually create magnetic fields when a current runs through them. Also the direction of the current determines how the magnetic field lines direction. Also the solenoid, similar to a magnet will then have a north pole and south pole?
But for the bar magnet, the north end of the bar attracts to the south end of the bar? still sort of clueless on this part
Also what about a bar magnet inside a solenoid? something like this: https://gyazo.com/a17ed72e9e32b199eb0ebf9e4bc2c8cf
Are the field lines going in the same direction for both solenoid and magnetic bar? also then density of the lines, how can i determine that? Any help is appreciated.
