Question
Assertion : The poles of magnet cannot be separated by breaking into two pieces.
Reason : The magnetic moment will be reduced to half when a magnet is broken into two equal pieces.
✓

Answer

(b) As we know every atom of a magnet acts as a dipole, So poles cannot be separated. When magnet is broken into two equal pieces, magnetic moment of each part will be half of the original magnet.
