    Is it A? Yes! Two pieces of iron DO always attract each other with equal and opposite gravitational forces, although the forces are so small that we never notice them.

    Is it B? Yes, it could be. If at least one of the pieces of iron is magnetized, then they can attract each other with equal and opposite magnetic forces.

    Is it C? Yes, it could be. But the pieces of iron would have to be joined by a stretched rubber band. Then they would attract each other with equal and opposite elastic forces.

    Is it D? Yes, it could be. If one of the pieces of iron carries a net electric charge, then they attract each other with equal and opposite electrostatic forces.
