Dear Student

The magnetic field lines never intersect each other as an intersection of the field lines means the magnetic field at that point has two directions, which is not possible because the resultant force on a pole (north/south) at any point can only be in one direction.

Reason – The two magnetic field lines do not intersect each other because if they do it means at the point of intersecting the compass needle is showing two different directions which are not possible.
