Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What happens to magnetic force as the distance between two magnetic poles decreases? (the two magnets are getting closer)
A
It increases
B
It decreases
C
It stays the same
D
It depends on the circumstances
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Thus, the strength of the magnetic field is inversely proportional to the distance from the current carrying conductor. That is, as the distance increases the magnetic field decreases.

Detailed explanation-2: -The closer the two magnets are together, the stronger the force between them. So, as the distance decreases, the force increases, but the farther away they are, the weaker the magnetic force is.

Detailed explanation-3: -The magnetic force acting between magnets decreases as the distance between them increases.

Detailed explanation-4: -And decreasing the separation distance between objects increases the force of attraction or repulsion between the objects.

Detailed explanation-5: -Magnetic Fields Varying as an Inverse Cube For both monopoles and dipoles, the field strength decreases as the distance from the source increases., often called the inverse square law.
