What happens to the divergence of the magnetic field in free space?
- A It is always zero.
- B It is always non-zero.
- C It depends on the source of the magnetic field.
- D It is unpredictable.
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
According to Maxwell's equations, the divergence of the magnetic field (∇ ⋅ B) in free space is always zero. This signifies that there are no magnetic monopoles and that magnetic field lines always form closed loops, contributing to our understanding of magnetic field behavior in various physical scenarios.
