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 ...
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.
When iron filings are sprinkled on paper with a bar magnet, they align along the magnetic field lines, sticking more densely at the ends (poles) of the magnet, showing the strength of the magnetic field. Class VI Chapter 4 Exploring ...
Artificial magnets are man-made from materials like iron and alloys, while natural magnets, like lodestones, occur naturally. Artificial magnets are widely used in modern applications such as toys, electronics and scientific tools. Class VI Chapter 4 Exploring Magnets NCERT Science ...
