Question

If the bar magnet on the left were broken in half, what statement correctly predicts how the two halves of the magnet would react

to the magnet on the right?

Answer 1

According to the law of magnetism, "Like poles repel, unlike poles attract" If the bar magnet on the left is broken, both halves will consequently have two poles, the north and south poles. If the right sides of both halves are of the south pole, the bar magnet on the right is of the north pole
