A student is instructed to map the magnetic field of a bar magnet using a sheet of paper, a pencil, and a single small plotting compass.
Describe a step-by-step practical procedure the student should follow to plot several complete magnetic field lines on the paper.
When drawing magnetic field lines to represent a magnetic field, certain scientific rules must be followed. State three essential features of magnetic field lines around a bar magnet that must be correctly represented in a diagram.
