Which of the following does NOT use magnetism to operate?

Compass

NMR apparatus

Vehicle

The reasoning behind the correct choice lies in the fact that a vehicle, in its conventional sense, typically relies on mechanical systems and energy sources such as engines, wheels, and fuel, rather than magnetism. While some advanced technologies or specific types of vehicles may incorporate magnetic components (like electric motors), the general operation of a standard vehicle—such as a car—does not fundamentally rely on magnetic principles.

In contrast, a compass utilizes the Earth's magnetic field to point toward magnetic north, NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) apparatus employs strong magnetic fields to analyze molecular structures, and magnetic levitation trains use magnetic forces to lift and propel the train along its tracks, demonstrating the importance of magnetism in their operational principles.
