Question

When two magnets north poles are put near one another, the magnetic field will show which of the following? A) repulsion lines connecting the north ends at their closest points as they try to pull away from one another B) repulsion of the magnets with a gap between the north ends as they try to pull away from one another C)attracation lines connecting the north ends at their closest points as they attract towards one another D) none of the above

Answer 1

When two magnets with their north poles facing each other are brought close together, they will repel each other. The magnetic field lines in this case will indicate a repulsion between the like poles.

The correct option that describes this scenario is:

B) repulsion of the magnets with a gap between the north ends as they try to pull away from one another

This option accurately represents the concept that like poles repel and that there is a gap between the north ends because they are pushing away from each other.
