Magnetic particle inspection can be performed on parts made from which

materials?

A longitudinal magnetic field has magnetic lines of force that

run:

Provices a less sensitive inspection
Can be used without the need for QQIs
Reduces inspection time

A location where a magnetic field can be detected exiting or

entering a material is called:

An object that has a magnetic pole on one end and a second
equal but opposite magnetic pole on the other is called a:

Dipole
Inductor
Capacitor
