Question:
Which of the following statements about bar magnets is correct?
Options:
North pole attracts north pole
South pole attracts south pole
We can separate north pole and south pole of a bar magnet
We can't separate the north pole and south pole of a bar magnet.
Correct Answer:
We can't separate the north pole and south pole of a bar magnet.
Explanation:
Since monopole does not exist. So, if a bar magnetic is cut in half, then each magnet gets its own pair of north pole and south pole and thus making two new bar magnets.
