(a) Q is of non-magnetic material

(b) Q is a bar magnet identical to P, and its north pole placed on top of P's north pole

(c) Q is of unmagnetized ferromagnetic material

(d) Nothing can be said about Q's properties

Answer

(b) Q is a bar magnet identical to P, and its north pole placed on top of P's north pole
