Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The correct answer is C. They are pointing right to left.

Explanation.

A magnet has two poles, a north pole and a south pole. When dealing with magnets, we define the concept of a magnetic field. A magnetic field represents the effect of the magnet on magnetic materials and moving charges in the space around the magnet. For every magnet, the magnetic field lines always point away from the north pole of the magnet towards the south pole. Since the north pole of this magnet faces right, the magnetic field lines point towards the left.

The correct answer is C. They are pointing right to left.
