Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

Gauss's law:

It is one of the Maxwell's equations which are the foundation of Electrodynamics. According to this law magnetic field has zero divergence and magnetic monopole can't exist. Inside a closed surface, the magnetic flux inward at the south pole will be exactly equal to the outward magnetic flux at the north pole of the magnetic dipole. Thus, the net magnetic flux will be zero.
