Question

Which is more powerful between a bar magnet and a horseshoe magnet?

Answer 1

1. A bar magnet is a magnet in the form of a bar having either a rectangular or a circular cross-section.
2. A horseshoe magnet is a magnet that is U-shaped and resembles a horseshoe.
3. , A horseshoe magnet is stronger because both poles of the magnet are closer to each other and in the same plane which allows the magnetic lines of flux to flow along a more direct path between the poles and concentrates the magnetic field.

Hence, a horseshoe magnet is more powerful than a bar magnet.
