Problem

A student draws an imaginary square of area 1 cm21\,\text{cm}^2 perpendicular to the magnetic field at two locations near a bar magnet. Through point A, eight field lines pass the square, while through point B, only two lines pass the same-sized square. Calculate the ratio BA:BBB_A : B_B of the magnetic field strengths at A and B.
