MCQ
When a bar magnet is broken into two pieces:
- AWe will have a single pole on each piece.
- BEach piece will have two unlike poles.
- CEach piece will have two like poles.
- DNone of these.
✓
Answer
- Each piece will have two unlike poles.
Explanation:
When we break a magnet into two, both act as magnets, that is both have a north and south pole each. In both these pieces the corresponding north and south poles remain on the sides as in the original magnet. This means that the 2 broken sides must get oppositely polarized.
