What would a freely suspended magnet do?
A freely suspended magnet will align itself in the north-south direction due to Earth's magnetic field. The north pole of the magnet will point towards the geographic north pole, and the south pole will point towards the geographic south pole.
If you suspend a bar magnet from its center the magnet will do what?
If you suspend a bar magnet from its center, it will align itself in the north-south direction due to Earth's magnetic field. This alignment occurs because the magnet is trying to minimize its potential energy and align with the magnetic field lines.
The place near the ends of a magnet from which the main magnetic pull seems to come?
The poles of a magnet. Labeled as north pole and south pole.
Why is one part of a magnet called a north pole?
A: Imagine a large pole being shoved into the earth and come out the other end. This is called the earth's axis. It's an imaginary rod that the earth spins around once a day. at the top of the earth is the north pole while the bottom of the earth is the south pole.The North Police is also called the Geographic North Pole or Terrestrial North Pole.
If earth is a giant magnet why does the magnetic south pole correspond with the geographical north pole?
Good question ! The answer is that when scientists first began to investigate magnets, the pole of a magnet that tries to point North was called a "north-seeking pole". The word seeking was quietly dropped when people got tired of saying it. So, the magnetic pole in northern Canada is a south-seeking pole, or as we would say today, the South pole of a magnet. The earth's north-seeking pole is in Antarctica.An Alternative Answer'Magnetic North' and 'Magnetic South' are LOCATIONS, so-named to distinguish them from 'True North' and 'True South'. These terms have NOTHING whatsoever to do with the magnetic polarity of those locations.The ends of a magnet (or of a compass needle) are so-called because, when freely suspended, come to rest pointing in the directions of Magnetic North and Magnetic South. Originally, these were called the 'North-seeking' and 'South-seeking' poles of the magnet. Over time, we have dropped the word, 'seeking', and now simply call them their 'north' and 'south' poles. These are the magnetic POLARITIES of the magnet's ends. Since the 'north' pole of a magnet is attracted towards Magnetic North, the polarity of that location is south. So the earth behaves as though there is a giant magnet, buried within the earth, with its south pole locatedat Magnetic North and its north pole located at Magnetic South.

If water fire earth air come under elements what do shadow light come under?
your mums nipple while facing north with a church singing "your a goofy goobber"
What happens if you suspend a bar magnet so it can go freely?
if the magnet has a low enough mass, and the string induces very little forces and friction on the magnet, it will act like a compass, the south end will point to the north pole and vice versus with north
Which direction will a magnet point to and why?
A magnet always has two faces or 'poles'. One is called north, because it will be attracted to the north pole of the earth if allowed to freely rotate. The other is called south because it will be attracted to the south pole of the earth. The earth itself acts like a magnet. The north pole of the earth actually has a south magnetic polarity and therefore attracts the north pole of a magnet. A compass needle is a magnet in which the arrow that points north has a north magnetic polarity.

How do magnet s generate electricity?
Magnets are just rocks that come from the Earth. The Earth has grvaity, and when the magnets come up frm the ground they keep there gravity with them and thts how it wrks.
Explain in brief the properties of magnet?
A magnet has both a South pole and a North pole. The magnetic properties of a magnet come from the alignment of electrons inside of the magnet. The North pole of a magnet will repel another North pole, but attract a South pole, and vice versa.
Why are there north and south ends to a magnet?
Originally, the poles of a magnet were called the 'North-seeking pole' and the 'South-seeking pole', because they pointed towards the North (actually Magnetic North) and South respectively. Over time, we have dropped the 'seeking' part of the names and they are now known, simply, as the 'north pole' and the 'south pole' These terms were then used as the names of the magnetic polarities of a magnet. Because 'unlike poles attract', the location we call "Magnetic North" has a south magnetic polarity.
What will the earth look like after North America and Europe come together?
