MCQ
Which of the following is a natural magnet?
- AMagnetic needle
- BBar magnet
- CMagnetite
- DHorseshoe magnet
✓
Answer
- Magnetite
Explanation:
Pieces of naturally occurring iron ore, lodestone or magnetite had the property of attracting small pieces of iron. Hence, magnetite is a natural magnet. All natural magnets are permanent magnets, meaning they will never lose their magnetic power.
