1.

Answer:

b. Like poles repel each other, and unlike poles attract each other.

Explanation:

here two opposite poles are showing similar behavior of attraction or repulsion between magnets as that of nature of two opposite charges.

2.

Answer:

Magnetic field

Explanation:

This is right hand thumb rule according to which the magnetic field will along curl of fingers if thumb is along magnetic field.

3.

Answer:

d. Both a. and c. are correct.

Explanation:

Magnetic field due to a closed loop is given by

[tex]B = \frac{\mu_0 Ni}{2r}[/tex]

so here in order to increase the magnetic field we have to increase the number of loops and current.

4.

Answer:

d. B is independent of the current in the wire.

Explanation:

As we know that the magnetic due to a wire carrying current is given by

[tex]B = \frac{\mu_0 i}{2\pi r}[/tex]

so here we can say that

a. B is proportional to the current in the wire.  

b. B is inversely proportional to the distance from the wire.

c. The lines of B form concentric circles about the wire.

so here FALSE statement will be

d. B is independent of the current in the wire.
