Jesse tests three magnets by observing how many paper clips he can attach to the north pole in a single chain. He finds that Magnet A holds six paper clips, Magnet B holds five paper clips, and Magnet C holds two paper clips. He warms Magnets A and C in the oven for a few minutes and repeats his procedure. This time, Magnet A holds only four paper clips, Magnet B still holds five paper clips, and Magnet C cannot hold any paper clips. Which statement explains Jesse’s observations?
Warming a magnet unaligned some of the magnetic domains.
The forces produced by a magnet naturally become weaker over time.
Warming a magnet causes the distance of its magnetic force to decrease.
The poles of the magnet become reversed when warmed and cause it to repel the paper clips.

Sachdev finds two metal bars and decides that since they are stuck together, at least one of metal bars must be a magnet. Sachdev pulls the bars apart and uses a marker to label each end of the bars. She lays bar CD on the table and then ties a string around bar AB and hangs end A above end D, as shown in the diagram.
Sachdev finds that the end marked A tips downward until it is touching the end marked D. Which test allows Sachdev to draw a conclusion about the magnetic properties of each metal bar?
She hangs A directly above C and sees that the two ends attract. She concludes that both bar AB and bar CD always produce magnetic fields.
She hangs B directly above C and sees that the two ends attract. She concludes that both bar AB and bar CD always produce magnetic fields.
She hangs B directly above C and sees that the two ends attract. She concludes that bar CD always produces a magnetic field, but bar AB only temporarily produces a magnetic field.
She hangs A above the center of bar CD and finds that A is only weakly attracted to CD. She concludes that bar CD always produces a magnetic field, but bar AB only temporarily produces a magnetic field.
