Question

Whenever a magnet is not in use, it should be stored along with the other magnets.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

1. If the poles of a magnet are left free for a long time, they tend to become weaker. This is called self-demagnetization.
2. When two magnets are kept close to each other, due to the mutual attraction and repulsion between them, their magnetic strength decreases over a period of time.
3. Therefore, magnets are stored using magnetic keepers.

Thus, the given statement is false.
