To determine

The behavior of second magnet placed on the table when its north pole is brought near the north pole of a handled bar magnet.

Answer to Problem 1CQ

The second magnet placed on the table will move away.

Explanation of Solution

For magnets, like poles repel and unlike poles attract each other. In the given situation, the north Pole of a magnet is brought towards the north pole of other magnet on the table. At this moment, magnet on the table will start to move away.

This is because the force between the same poles is repulsive in nature and in between opposite poles it is attractive in nature.

Conclusion:

Therefore, the second magnet placed on the table will move away.
