FIGURE 22-4
-When the switch is closed in the circuit shown in the sketch in Figure 22-4, the wire between the poles of the horseshoe magnet deflects upward. From this you can conclude that the left end of the magnet is
A) not contributing to the wire's deflection.
B) a north magnetic pole.
C) a south magnetic pole.
D) a magnetic monopole.
E) a magnetic dipole.
