Question

A magnet can repel another magnet but an iron object cannot.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

1. Natural magnets generate a magnetic field without artificial inducement.
2. Magnet has two poles i.e North and South.
3. If we bring two unlike poles towards each other then there is an attractive force between the magnet.
4. If we bring two like poles towards each other then there is a repulsive force between the magnet.
5. A magnet can repel each other because there are two poles in the magnet but an iron object cannot repel each other as there are no poles in the iron object.
   Hence, the given statement is the true statement.
