Question

Which statement about electric and magnetic fields is true.

1)electric and magnetic fields start at a positive and end at a negative.
2)magnetic fields must start at the north pole of a magnet and end at the south pole of the magnet.
3) electric fields must leave a positive charge and end on a negative charge.
4) electric fields and magnetic fields loop from north to south

Answer 1

The correct answer is 2. Magnetic fields must start at the north pole of a magnet and end at the south pole of a magnet. I took the test. Hope I helped!

Answer 2

Magnetic fields must start at the north pole of a magnet and end at the south pole of the magnet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The lines that shows the direction of electric and magnetic field are called electric and magnetic field lines.The direction of electric field is from positive charge to negative charge.

The magnetic filed lines start at the north pole of a magnet and end at the south pole of the magnet.

Hence, the correct option is (2) "Magnetic fields must start at the north pole of a magnet and end at the south pole of the magnet".
