c) cancel out each other's magnetic fields

d) point toward the north pole.

please explain

Answer 1

option (a) is correct.

A Magnetic Field is said to exist in a region if a (Magnetic) Force can be exerted on a Magnet. Magnetic Field Lines (Flux Lines) are imaginary lines representing the direction and strength of the Magnetic Field. They go from the North Pole to the South Pole outside the Magnet, and go from the South Pole to the North Pole inside the Magnet. The density of the Magnetic Field Lines is higher near the Poles, and the Magnetic Force is stronger there.A Magnet attracts or repels other Magnets, depending on their mutual orientation of North and South Poles.When placing like Poles of two Magnets together, the Magnets repel each other
