Question

Sonal made a toy as shown in the picture.
Figure
While playing she noticed that when toy C was brought near toy A, it ran away. But when toy B was brought near toy A, it ran towards him. Explain Sonal's observations.

Answer 1

Sonal's observations indicate that the toys are made of magnet. Now, similar poles of magnets repel each other. Hence, toy C and toy A have similar poles. Similarly, opposite poles of magnets attract each other. Hence, toy B and toy A have opposite poles.
