A

Permeability

19
Q

Magnetic screens are made up of what type of reluctance

A

Low

20
Q

Why don’t magnetic lines of force collapse in the center of a magnet

A

Because they repel eachother

21
Q

Why are there no magnetic poles in the fields surrounding current caring conductor

Q

Is the field around the conductor more dance or less dense closer to the conductor

A

More

23
Q

As the current in the conductor is decreased what happens to the magnetic lines of force surrounding the conductor

A

The flex lines collapse inward
