Answer 2

The correct answer is "Each of the two segments of the original bar magnet will have a north and south pole."

Step-by-step explanation:

A bar magnet has a north and a south pole. Irrespective of how many pieces the bar magnet is broken into each individual piece will have a north and a south pole. Now each of the smaller magnets will align such that the south poles point in one direction and the north pole points in the opposite direction.
