Answer:

south

Step-by-step explanation:

An electromagnet is a magnet that is formed when a current wire loop is rotated in a magnetic field, a current gets induced in the wire loop. A changing magnetic field causes an electric current in the wire loop.

A solenoid is a wire coil into a wire coil. When a iron piece in placed inside the solenoid it becomes electromagnet.

Since the north pole of a magnet approaches a solenoid, current is induced and the end near the north pole of the magnet becomes the south pole as like poles distract and unlike poles attract.
