Detailed Solution

Force between two Magnets is given by F=μ04π6M1M2r4, M1 and M2 are the magnetic moments of the magnets. This is a result using the concepts of potential energy of a magnet placed in a external magnetic field.

Force between two poles is given by F=μ04πm1m2r2,m1 and m2 are the pole strengths

It does not follow inverse square law of distance. The assertion and reason both are false.
