Question

Choose the correct statement(s) from the following :

• A. Magnetic lines of force appear to converge or diverge at poles.
• B. Magnetic lines of force never intersect each other.
• C. On passing AC through a wire wound around a magnet its strength of magnetism enhances.
• D. A magnet attracts certain other substances through the phenomenon of magnetic induction.

Answer 1

Answer: (A), (B), (D)

The correct options are
A Magnetic lines of force appear to converge or diverge at poles.
B Magnetic lines of force never intersect each other.
D A magnet attracts certain other substances through the phenomenon of magnetic induction.

The magnetic line e of forces is closed curves. They appear to converge or diverge at poles outside the magnet they run from north to south and inside from south to north.

Magnetic lines of force never intersect each other because if they do so there will be two directions of magnetic fields which is not possible.

A magnet attracts other substance through the phenomenon of magnetic induction. It is the process by which an object or material is magnetised by an external magnetic field.
