Why did the iron filings arrange themselves in this manner? Select 2 answers

• The magnetic forces increased as the iron filings fell farther away from the magnet.

• The magnetic forces increased as the iron filings fell closer to the magnet.

• The iron filings arranged themselves in this manner due to the magnetic field of the magnet.

• The magnetic forces remained the same as the iron filings fell all around the magnet.
