d) Permanent magnets
View Answer
Answer: c
Explanation: Materials having low retentivity are temporary
magnets because they can retain the magnetic strength for
only some time.
Answer: a
Explanation: Moving charges have a magnetic field
associated with them because they have magnetic flux lines
associated with it.
Answer: a
Explanation: Magnetic lines of force originate at the north
pole and terminate at the south pole hence they are from
the north pole to the south pole.

a) Emerge
b) Converge
c) Neither emerge nor converge
d) Either emerge or converge
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: Magnetic force lines emerge at the north pole.
Force lines seem to emerge at the north pole because they
originate at the north pole.
Answer: d
Explanation: When a bar magnet is broken into two pieces,
it forms two differ bar magnets. This happens because the
broken pieces of the magnet forms a separate north and
south pole for itself as monopoles do not exist.
