How does a compass needle respond when a compass is placed within a magnetic field? It aligns in a direction parallel to the field. It points toward the edge of the field. It rotates in the center of the field. It aligns in a direction perpendicular to the field.

At the point when a compass is put inside an attractive field, it adjusts toward a path parallel to the field.

Hope this helps ^_^
