Card 2Directive property of magnet

A magnet is suspended freely. In which direction does it come to rest?

Answer

A freely suspended magnet comes to rest in the north-south direction. The end pointing towards the north is called the north pole, and the end pointing towards the south is called the south pole.

Card 3Test for a magnet

Why is repulsion the sure test for a magnet?

Answer

Repulsion happens only when two magnets face each other with like poles. A magnet can also attract a plain iron rod, so attraction alone does not confirm a magnet. Repulsion proves that both objects a

Card 4Magnetic poles

What is a magnetic pole?

Answer

The end of a magnet where the attractive property is maximum is called the magnetic pole. A magnet has two poles: north pole and south pole.

Card 5Magnetic poles in pairs

A bar magnet is broken into two pieces. What happens to the poles?

Answer

Each piece becomes a complete magnet with both poles. It is not possible to separate the two poles of a magnet. New poles are formed at the broken ends.

Card 6Magnetic field

What is the magnetic field of a magnet?

Answer

The space around a bar magnet in which the magnetic compass gets influenced is called its magnetic field. A compass needle changes direction at different points around the magnet because of this field

Card 7Magnetic materials

Which materials are magnetic materials?
