Question

Observe the diagram .A and B are two soft iron nails kept near a magnet as

shown. They have gained magnetic property .

(a) What is the polarity at the end B? (1)

(b) How do the nails get magnetised? ​

Answer 1

Yes, a nail will be attracted to either pole of a magnet. The magnet causes the boundaries between magnetic domains to move slightly, giving a net magnetic field to the nail. path If the nail is near the othermagnetic pole then different magnetic domain boundaries move.

Thanks for this question❤
