Suppose a small cylinder of a paramagnetic substance and a small cylinder of a diamagnetic substance are placed between the (parallel) pole pieces of a strong magnet,so that they are aligned along the direction of the field lines. Will they attract or repel each other?

  • A
    Attract when they are placed such that their axis is common and repel when they are placed side by side
  • B
    Repel when they are placed such that their axis is common and attract when they are placed side by side
  • C
    Attract when they are placed such that their axis is common as well as when they are placed side by side
  • D
    Repel when they are placed such that their axis is common as well as when they are placed side by side
