Abstract
Geodesics for a 5D magnetized Schwarzschild-like solution are analyzed by reducing the problem to the motion of a test particle in an effect ive potential. In absence of magnetic field comparison is established with Schwarzschild's geometry. Embedding diagrams are constructed in o rder to visualize the geometry of the metric. The study performed here is also valid, when the electromagnetic interactions are neglected, f or the low energy superstring theory and the Brans-Dicke theory.
