Magnetic clippers use a ring and?

  1. A Blade

  2. A Lever

  3. Magnetic Mechanism

  4. Electric Motor

The correct answer is: Magnetic Mechanism

Magnetic clippers use a ring and magnetic mechanism to operate. Electromagnetic force is created when the ring is activated, causing the clippers to cut the hair. Option A is incorrect because a blade is not necessary for the operation of magnetic clippers - the magnetic mechanism is what performs the cutting action. Option B is incorrect because a lever is also not necessary for the operation of magnetic clippers. Option D is incorrect because electric motors are typically used in traditional clippers, not magnetic clippers which rely on the magnetic mechanism.
