Answer» Correct Answer - B
As the switch is turned ON, he current flows through the circuit and magnetic field will be produced around it. All iron filings wil align in the direction fo a magnetic field. But the metallic comb will not behave, like an electro magnet, and hence, the iron filings will neither be attracted nor repelled.
