Answer:

Option D, they always point away from a north pole

Step-by-step explanation:

Magnetic fields and electric fields are similar in following ways –

a) Electric field is produced by two opposite charges while magnetic field is produced by two opposite poles i.e north and South Pole. However, they are also produced by charges that are moving.

b) Like charges repel and unlike charges attract each other. Similarly, like poles repel and unlike poles attract each other

c) Electric field is pointed towards the positive charge while magnetic field is away from the north pole and move toward the south pole.

Hence, option D is correct
