A piece of unmagnetised soft iron is held near a strong permanent magnet, as shown. What polarity is induced at end X of the soft iron, and in what direction does the magnetic force act on the soft iron?
- Apolarity of end X: N; direction of force on the soft iron: to the left
- Bpolarity of end X: N; direction of force on the soft iron: to the right
- Cpolarity of end X: S; direction of force on the soft iron: to the left
- Dpolarity of end X: S; direction of force on the soft iron: to the right
