Explanation of Solution

Introduction:

A magnet has two poles, north and south. The law for magnets is that similar poles repel each other while dissimilar pole attract towards each other.Similarly charged particles can be positively charged and negatively charged. Same charge particles repel each other while oppositely charged particles attract each other.

A magnet attracts a piece of unmagnetized iron such that the magnetic field of the magnet aligns the magnetic dipoles of iron in the same direction. Now this piece will be attracted to the magnet.

The charged rod can attract an insulator in such a way that the charged rod separates the free charged particles in the insulator and making it polar.
