Question 3
F

The north pole of a magnet is brought near an unmagnetised iron bar and the bar is attracted. The magnet is turned round so that its south pole faces the bar. What happens now?

[1]
A

The bar is repelled, because the two poles are now alike

B

The bar stays still, because the induced magnetism is cancelled

C

The bar is attracted, because the poles induced in it also reverse

D

The bar is attracted, because the iron is now a permanent magnet
