Question

If the above bar magnet is broken along the middle line then how many north poles and south poles will we get in the end?

• A. 1 north, 1 south
• B. 2 north, 1 south
• C. 2 north, 2 south
• D. 1 north, 2 south

Answer 1

The correct option is C

2 north, 2 south

If one magnet is broken into two, we always get two separate smaller magnets. Both magnets will have their own north and south pole.
