Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Recall magnetic - force principle

The magnetic force between two magnets decreases with the increase of the distance between them.

Step2: Compare distances

In Pair 1, the distance between the magnets is 18.3 mm. In Pair 2, the distance between the magnets is 27.5 mm. Since 18.3 mm < 27.5 mm.

Answer:

The magnitude of the magnetic force is greater in Pair 1.
