  1. To visualize a magnetic field, you can use iron filings or a compass. When iron filings are sprinkled around a magnet, they arrange themselves along the magnetic field lines, showing the pattern of the field. Alternatively, a compass needle, which is a tiny magnet, aligns itself with the magnetic field when placed near a magnet, indicating the field’s direction. These methods make the invisible magnetic field visible and help in understanding its shape and strength.
