Magnetic field lines are continuous. The lines outside the magnet go from north to south, while inside goes from south to north creating a closed loop. This is because there are no magnetic monopoles.

Do magnetic field lines close together indicate a weaker magnetic field?
no they are not
How could straight copper wire produce magnetic field lines?
The copper by itself will do nothing of the sort. It will be surrounded by magnetic field lines if a current flows through it. It is the current that produces the magnetic field lines.
does magnetic field lines cross?
Never
Why are the magnetic field lines on the sun distorted?
Different latitudes of the sun rotate at different speeds. This tends to twist and bend the magnetic field lines.
Are the lines that map out the magnetic field around a magnet?
no
How it can be possible to produce electric current in a uniform magnetic field?
-- Form a continuous circuit out of a conducting material. -- Move the conductor through the magnetic field, at an angle to the magnetic 'lines of force'.
What would happen if field lines crossed?
Then, at some point, the field would go into two directions simultaneously, which doesn't make much sense. The magnetic field lines form continuous closed loops.The tangent to the field line at a point represent the direction of the net magnetic field B,at that point.The magnetic field lines do not intersect,if they did, the direction of the magnetic field would not be unique at the point of intersection.
What are the lines called that map out the magnetic field around magnetic?
They are called the magnetic field lines.
Where do magnetic field lines cross?
Magnetic field lines don't cross.
A magnetic field is described by magnetic lines of?
Lines of Force
Where in the Earth do magnetic fields occur?
Magnetic field lines are not a real observable thing, they are a tool used in physics to picture magnetic fields. A magnetic field is a continuous entity; it has no discrete force lines.
What are the lines called that the map out the magnetic field around a magnet?
They are called the magnetic field lines.
What type of magnetic field lines represent uniform magnetic field?
straight parallel lines
A current in a long straight wire produces a magnetic field. These magnetic field lines?
The magnetic field lines are arranged circularly around the wire.
What does the relative density of lines of a magnetic field tell us about the strength of the field?
The closer the lines the stronger the magnetic field.
What is a magnetic field made up of?
Magnetic field is made up of magnetic lines.
Where is the magnetic force the greatest on a magnet?
The magnetic force of a magnet is strongest at its poles. This is because the field lines of the magnetic field are most concentrated at the poles where they enter and leave the magnet. At the poles the magnetic field is strongest and the force is the greatest. The north pole is where the magnetic field lines enter the magnet. The south pole is where the magnetic field lines leave the magnet. The magnetic field lines are most concentrated at the poles. The magnetic force is greatest at the poles.
