Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. Point where the magnetic field is zero.

The neutral point in the magnetic field of a horizontally placed bar magnet is the point where the magnetic field is zero. At this location, the magnetic fields due to the bar magnet and the Earth's magnetic field cancel each other out. This point is typically found along the axis perpendicular to the bar magnet, between its north and south poles. It represents a position where the magnetic effects of the bar magnet and the Earth's field are in equilibrium, resulting in no net magnetic field.
