A

A solenoid can effectively magnetize a ferromagnetic rod when a current is passed through it.

B

Permanent magnets can only be created by stroking a steel rod with a bar magnet in random directions.

C

A material with low retentivity is suitable for making permanent magnets.

D

Hammering a magnetic material in any direction will yield a stronger magnet.

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

According to the NCERT context, an efficient way to make a permanent magnet is by placing a ferromagnetic rod in a solenoid and passing a current through it, which utilizes the magnetic field of the solenoid for magnetization.
