If we release a magnet held in our hand, it falls to the ground. The force responsible for this is:
$(a)$. muscular force
$(b)$. magnetic force
$(c)$. electrostatic force
$(d)$. gravitational force
When we release a magnet from our hand, it falls to the ground due to the gravitational force of attraction.
So, option (d) is correct.
