which of the following will be attracted to or repelled by a magnet A. Copper wire not carrying current. B. A copper wire carrying current. C. Another magnet. D. An aluminum can

the answer is c another magnet can be attracted or repelled because they have north and south sides

Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A magnet will only be attracted by another magnet as each magnet contains opposite poles. These poles are north pole and south pole.

Hence, like poles are repel each other whereas opposite poles are attracted towards each other.

Therefore, when a magnet comes in contact with a copper wire then there will be attraction between them.

On the other hand, if south pole of a magnet comes in contact with the north pole of another magnet then a force of attraction will occur between them.

Due to this both the magnets get attracted towards each other. But when south pole of a magnet comes in contact with the south pole of another magnet then force of repulsion will occur.

Thus, we can conclude that another magnet will be attracted to or repelled by a magnet.
