Figure 2 shows a simplified cross-section diagram of the solenoid.

Figure 2: A simplified cross-sectional diagram along the length of a solenoid, showing a central hollow core bounded by wire loops on the top and bottom. The space inside the core is empty.

Draw at least three magnetic field lines inside the solenoid on Figure 2 to represent the shape of the magnetic field in this region.
