This interactive simulation models the magnetic field generated by a bar magnet and current-carrying wire. Students can visualize field lines, adjust magnet orientation, vary field measurement positions, and observe how magnetic dipoles create the overall field pattern. Real-time field strength calculations help learners understand field distribution and vector properties.
Learning objectives: Understand how magnetic fields are generated by permanent magnets and electric currents | Visualize and interpret magnetic field line patterns and field strength variations | Explore the relationship between dipole configuration and resultant magnetic field properties
