Question
For protecting a sensitive equipment from external magnetic field, it should be:

Answer

  1. Placed inside an iron can.
Explanation:
Iron is a ferromagnetic substance, so there are no magnetic lines of force inside it. So to protect the sensitive equipment from external magnetic field, it should be placed inside an iron can.
