CBSE Class 12-science Answered

When a magnet is brought close to iron nails, the nails (streaking to it) rotate as well as translate. Why?

answered-by-expert Expert Answer

Generally, the field due to a bar magnet is non-uniform. Hence, it exerts both a net force and torque on the nails because of which, the nails rotate as well as translate.
