A magnetic line of force is a curve drawn in a
magnetic field in such a way that tangent to the curve at Magnetic dipole moment :-
any point gives direction of magnetic field at that point.
Magnetic lines of force start from north pole and
end on South Pole.
The properties of magnetic lines of force are
similar to that of properties of electric lines of force.
The product of the pole strength (m) and the

Consider, a short magnetic dipole of moment M. This gives direction of the resultant magnetic induction.
Let, P be a point at a distance ‘r’ from the centre of the
dipole along a line making an angle with the axis of the
dipole as shown in fig.

Magnetic Equator :- • Magnetic maps of the Earth :-
It is a great circle on the surface of the earth in a Declination, dip and horizontal component of

at a given place.
Magnetic Declination :- This magnetic elements describe the magnitude
and direction of magnetic field of the earth at that place.
Magnetic elements of the earth vary from place
to place and also with time.
The maps providing these values at different
locations are called magnetic maps.
These are extremely useful for navigation.
Magnetic maps drawn by joining places with the
same value of particular element are called Iso magnetic
charts .
Lines joining the places of equal horizontal
components (BH ) are known as isodynamic lines.
Lines joining the places of equal declination (a)
are called isogonic lines.

The magnetic declination differs from place to
