What Is Magnetic Length?
Magnetic Length: the Distance Between the Two Magnetic Poles Is Called the Magnetic Length. a Bar Magnet Consist of Two Equal and Opposite Magnetic Pole...
.
Just so, what are magnetic length and length of a magnet?
In a bar magnet the poles of the magnet are situated a little distance inside the ends of the magnet. The distance between these two poles (north and south) is known as magnetic length. The actual length or the size of the magnet is called the geometric length.
Likewise, what is a magnetic axis? Magnetic axis is defined as the line which joins the two poles of a magnet .
Also know, why is magnetic length less than geometric length?
Explanation: The shortest distance between two poles is called effective length and is less than its geometric length. Since the magnetic poles are not exactly at the ends, the magnetic length is slightly less than the geometrical length.
What is magnetic meridian?
The magnetic meridian is an equivalent imaginary line connecting the magnetic south and north poles and can be taken as the horizontal component of magnetic force lines along the surface of the earth. Therefore, a compass needle will be parallel to the magnetic meridian.
