After using google and my textbook, I keep getting contrary view in which where the direction of magnetic field lines would travel.
Does the magnetic field lines travel from SOUTH to NORTH or NORTH to SOUTH?
Based on the following snippet from hyperphysics:
it seems that the magnetic field is directed from SOUTH to NORTH.
However, according to the answer provided by my textbook on the following question, magnetic field is directed from NORTH to SOUTH.
Answer given by my textbook in exact words:
b) There is a flux directed upwards due to the magnetic field lines being directed from the north to south pole.
Another example of NORTH to SOUTH from my textbook:
Funnily enough my textbook itself provided a contrary view which is shown in the following snippet:
This is so frustrating, what is the proper convention?
