Map the magnetic field around a bar magnet with a movable compass.
🎮 Try It
Drag the compass to different sides of the magnet and watch its needle turn. Move the magnet and change its strength. Turn on field arrows or the field meter, and compare the view with Earth on and off.
🎯 Your Mission
Before moving the compass to three new positions, predict which way its red needle will point. Test each prediction and use the field arrows only after you have guessed.
🌍 Real-World Connection
