Answer: option A.
A physical change occurred in which the iron remained iron, but lost one of its physical properties
Explanation: magnetization and demagnetization is a physical change as no new substance is form and it is easily reversed. When an iron rod is magnetized, it can loss it magnetic property by hitting it. So when an iron rod which is magnetized falls from a height it can also loss its magnetic property
