The correct Answer is:
To analyze the given statements and determine their validity, we will break down the reasoning step by step. ### Step 1: Understanding Statement 1 **Statement 1:** "Magnetic poles are only mathematical assumptions and have no real existence." - Magnetic poles always occur in pairs: North and South. - No magnet exists with only one pole (monopole). - If a magnet is cut, each piece will still have both a North and South pole. - Therefore, magnetic poles cannot exist independently; they are always part of a dipole. **Conclusion for Statement 1:** This statement is true in the sense that magnetic monopoles do not exist; magnetic poles are always found in pairs. ### Step 2: Understanding Statement 2 **Statement 2:** "Magnetic field lines are always in closed loops." - Magnetic field lines emerge from the North pole and enter the South pole outside the magnet. - Inside the magnet, the field lines run from the South pole back to the North pole, completing the loop. - This means that magnetic field lines do not begin or end; they always form closed loops. **Conclusion for Statement 2:** This statement is also true, as magnetic field lines indeed form closed loops. ### Step 3: Relationship Between the Statements - Statement 1 discusses the nature of magnetic poles, asserting that they do not exist as isolated entities. - Statement 2 provides a description of the behavior of magnetic field lines, which is a consequence of the existence of magnetic dipoles. **Conclusion:** Both statements are true, and Statement 2 provides a correct explanation for Statement 1. ### Final Answer Both statements are true, and the correct option is **A** (Both statements are true, and Statement 2 is the correct explanation for Statement 1). ---
