Question

A bar magnet is divided in two pieces . Which of the following statements is true ? A. The bar magnet is demagnetized. B. The magnetic field of each separated piece becomes stronger C. The magnetic poles are separated D .Two new bar magnets are created

Answer 1

D. Two new bar magnets are created​

Explanation:

To answer this question we must take into account that magnetic monopoles do not exist. Therefore, if we divided a bar magnet into two parts, each bar magnet has both poles, north pole and south pole, which act as an individual bar magnet. so the result is that two new bar magnets are formed.

So the correct answer is D. Two new bar magnets are created​
