While researching magnetic fields, Marisa finds several online sites that describe a fictitious north monopole that is a magnet with only a north pole. Although it does not exist, the north monopole is used to describe magnetic field lines.

A
The field lines around a magnet point from the south pole to the north pole to show the direction opposite to the magnetic force on the monopole.
B
The field lines around a magnet point from the south pole to the north pole to show the direction of the magnetic force on the monopole.
C
The field lines around a magnet point from the north pole to the south pole to show the direction opposite to the magnetic force on the monopole.
D
The field lines around a magnet point from the north pole to the south pole to show the direction of the magnetic force on the monopole.

A
They should exit the box at N and enter at S.
B
They should exit the box at S and enter at N.
C
They should be put inside the box so the two ends join.
D
None should be put inside the box.
E
They should form loops outside of the box over the top, bottom, and sides of the box.
F
They should form loops outside of the box, but over only the sides of the box.
