A small iron bar does not rest along the north-south direction but aligns randomly. This shows that only magnets have the property of aligning with Earth’s magnetic field. Class VI Book Curiosity Science Chapter 4 Exploring Magnets NCERT Science Textbook ...
A freely suspended magnet aligns along the north-south direction because the Earth behaves like a giant magnet, exerting magnetic forces that orient the magnet’s poles accordingly. Class VI Chapter 4 Exploring Magnets NCERT Science Textbook Curiosity Science Session 2024-2025.
A freely suspended bar magnet demonstrates the principle that magnets align themselves with Earth’s magnetic field, helping identify the cardinal directions—north and south. Class 6 NCERT Chapter 4 Exploring Magnets Class VI Book Curiosity ScienceSession 2024-2025.
The Sun’s rising (east) or setting (west) direction provides an approximate east-west reference. Comparing this with the magnet’s alignment confirms it points along the north-south direction. Class VI Chapter 4 Exploring Magnets NCERT Science Textbook Curiosity Science Session 2024-2025.
Iron filings align along the magnet’s poles because the magnetic field is strongest at the poles. This strong magnetic force attracts the filings, causing them to cluster at these points on the magnet. Class VI Book Curiosity Science Chapter 4 ...
To mark the resting position, place the magnet horizontally, allow it to come to rest, and mark the positions of both ends on the ground or paper. Join these marks to form a straight line. NCERT Textbook Curiosity Science Class ...
When a bar magnet is suspended horizontally and rotated gently, it comes to rest in a particular direction. This direction is consistent, regardless of how many times the magnet is rotated. NCERT Textbook Curiosity Science Class 6 Chapter 4 Exploring ...
A bar magnet always aligns along the same line because it responds to the Earth’s magnetic field. Its poles orient themselves along the Earth’s north-south magnetic axis. Class 6 NCERT Chapter 4 Exploring Magnets NCERT Textbook Curiosity Science Session 2024-2025.
Iron filings stick most at the ends of the magnet, known as the poles, which are the North and South poles. The filings stick less uniformly on the rest of the magnet. Class 6 NCERT Chapter 4 Exploring Magnets Session ...
