Tape recorder should not be kept near one of the following things :
A.
Clock
B.
Magnet
AnswerC.
Electrical switchboard
D.
Radio
Answer: Option B
Solution
Answer: Option B
Solution:
The cassette tape contains a magnetic strip wound around two spools. Tiny magnetic particles are randomly scattered throughout the tape. A tape recorder should not be kept near a magnet as the latter can cause the magnetic material to be pushed and pulled out of place. Rearranging the magnetic particles erases the sound.
