Answer to Problem 1CQ

The magnet rotates in clockwise direction

Explanation of Solution

If magnet on the right is fixed and magnet on the left is free to move, the second magnet rotates. The rotation of the second magnet depend on the field of the first magnet,

Like poles repel each other and unlike poles attract each other. Therefore, the north-pole of the second magnet will have a tendency to attract south-pole of the first magnet and vice versa. Hence the second magnet will rotate in a clockwise direction.

 Conclusion:

The magnet rotates in clockwise direction
