Answer 1

Answer:

You have read that magnetism is a force that can act at a distance. However magnets cannot exert a force on an object that is too far away. ... Many small pieces of iron, called iron filings, are used to show the magnetic field around a magnet. The iron filings form a pattern of lines called magnetic field lines.

(C) Imbalanced amount of charge

The electrons contained within the objects are prone to move or migrate to other objects. And that creates imbalance of electrons among the bodies and that is what is meant by the term "charge on a body" in general sense.
