A
They will repel each other.
B
They will attract to each other.
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -When opposite poles of the magnets approach, they attract each other. Any north-south combination will pull them together. But when two like poles come together, they push each other apart.

Detailed explanation-2: -Unlike poles of magnet attract each other while like poles repel. So, the south and the north pole of two magnets will attract each other.

Detailed explanation-3: -Explanation: When the like pole of two magnets comes close they repel each other because the direction of the line of force is opposite and when the opposite pole comes together they attract each other because the line of force points in the same direction.

Detailed explanation-4: -The simplest example of this is the attraction of opposite poles of two magnets. Every magnet produces a magnetic field that is stronger near its poles. If opposite poles of two separate magnets are facing each other, each of the magnets is drawn into the stronger magnetic field near the pole of the other.

Detailed explanation-5: -If you bring the north pole of one magnet close to the south pole of another magnet, they will attract each other because unlike poles of two magnets attract each other.
