Please Answer Physics Question!

l. You have two small metal bars, A and B, identical in size, shape, and appearance. The bars exert mutually attractive forces on one other, and you realize that they are interacting magnetically. You know that one of the metal bars is a magnet, and one is a ferromagnet, but don't know which is which. (Ferromagnet refers to an object that interacts with magnets but is not itself a magnet; e.g., a piece of iron.) Is it possible to determine, through observations with only the two bars themselves, which bar is a magnet and which is a ferromagnet? If so, describe the observations you would make, and how you would interpret those observations in reaching a conclusion. If it is not possible, explain why not.

Explanation / Answer

it is not possible by observations

bar magnets creates magnetic field which is invisible whwere as ferr doesnt create magnetic field

we cant observe field so we cant differentiate them
