The light bulb provides an easy, safe, cost effective way to convert electrical energy into light. With the simple click of a switch, light is provided. There is no need for any chemical reaction such as burning which can be dangerous. In addition, light bulbs tend to have a reasonable life span and can be easily changed when needed. In today's society, with the increasing number of building which contain areas that are not exposed to natural light, the light bulb is important even during the day.

Why do things cling in magnets
Ber [7]

A magnet is any object that has a magnetic field. It attracts ferrous objects like pieces of iron, steel, nickel and cobalt. In the early days, the Greeks observed that the naturally occurring 'lodestone' attracted iron pieces. From that day onwards began the journey into the discovery of magnets.

These days magnets are made artificially in various shapes and sizes depending on their use. One of the most common magnets - the bar magnet - is a long, rectangular bar of uniform cross-section that attracts pieces of ferrous objects. The magnetic compass needle is also commonly used. The compass needle is a tiny magnet which is free to move horizontally on a pivot. One end of the compass needle points in the North direction and the other end points in the South direction.

The end of a freely pivoted magnet will always point in the North-South direction. The end that points in the North is called the North Pole of the magnet and the end that points South is called the South Pole of the magnet. It has been proven by experiments that like magnetic poles repel each other whereas unlike poles attract each other.

A cylinder has a magnetic flux of 13 Wb directed inward through its bottom end, and a magnetic flux of 22 Wb directed out of the
satela [25.4K]

To give a solution to this exercise, it is necessary to apply Gauss's magnetic law in which he proposes the magnetic flux through closed surface is zero.

Our data given are as follows:

Inward flux = 13Wb

Outward flux = 22Wb

Since the field of the second flow is directed OUT of the curved side we need to subtract the values, therefore,

Flux = 22-13

Flux = 9Wb\Rightarrow INWARD.
