Answer 2

D. gravitational force

Explanation:

The gravitational force is a force that attracts any object with mass. Gravitational force is the force exerted by Earth on all objects on its surface and above. Objects will be attracted towards the Earth's surface as a result of the gravitational pull. If we release a magnet from our hand, it will fall towards the ground. That is because of the gravitation pull on the magnet due to its mass, nothing to do with its magnetic field.  

Option D is the answer.
