Answer:
the correct answer is D
Explanation:
For this exercise we must remember that the poles of the same if not repel each other and the poles of different signs attract.
With this, let's analyze the situation presented.
The two magnets are perpendicular, with the second magnet to the right of the first.
We have two cases:
* first magnet with the north pole to the right
If the north of the second magnet is upwards there is a repulsion and the south pole of the second magnet there is an attraction with the north pole of the first magnet, so it would have a force that has to rotate the second magnet.
The force with the south pole of the first magnet that is at a greater distance is less, so the resultant of force is determined by the nearest poles.
If the poles of the second magnet are reversed, that is, the South pole up and the North pole down, the same result is obtained, but with a twist in the opposite direction.
* first magnet with the south pole to the right
Repels with the south pole of the second magnet and attracts with the north of the second magnet
therefore in both possibilities the second magnet acquires a rotational movement
Consequently the correct answer is D
