The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Concept of Magnetism:** - A magnet creates an invisible area around it due to its magnetic properties. This area is where magnetic forces can be felt by other magnetic materials. 2. **Identifying the Invisible Area:** - The question specifically asks for the term that describes the invisible area surrounding a magnet where force is experienced. 3. **Defining the Term:** - The term used to describe this invisible area is known as the "magnetic field." 4. **Conclusion:** - Therefore, the answer to the question is that the invisible area surrounding a magnet where force is experienced is called the **magnetic field**. ---
