When a bar magnet is placed on the axis of a coil with north pole facing the coil, face of coil towards the magnet behaves like ____

Options

A. a north pole
B. a south pole
C. no pole (devoid of magnetism)
D. permanent magnet

Answer

C

Explanation

Since there is no relative motion between coil and the magnet, magnetic flux linked with the coil does not change with time i.e. it is constant and so `epsilon=-(dphi)/(dt)=0` (`because phi`=constant)
There will not be any current through the coil and so face of coil, facing magnet will not behave like any magnetic pole.
