Solution

a and d

Explanation:

Here we are introducing the properties of magnetic field lines (B), for any magnet, it forms continuous closed loops. This is unlike the electric dipole where these field lines begin from a positive charge and end on the negative charge or escape to infinity.

Also, magnetic intensity (H) outside any magnet is H = `B/mu_0` and inside the magnet H = `B/(mu_0mu_r)`, where `mu_r` is the relative permeability of material (magnetic).

Magnetic field lines for magnetic field `(vecB)` is continuous upon a transition through the interface.

Also, magnetic intensity `(vecH)` varies for inside and outside the lump. So, lines of `(vecH)` cannot all be continuous across S.
