This problem set from Space Math at NASA provides 17 math exercises exploring the shapes, geometry, and scale of magnetic fields. For students grades K-12+, the problems serve as an engaging tool to supplement physics and solar science units, allowing students to apply practical mathematical concepts to heliophysics topics like coronal mass ejections and magnetospheres. Teachers can integrate these problems directly into lessons as warm-ups, homework assignments, or structured group activities to help students visualize invisible magnetic forces through data.
