What else can I help you with?
If you hang a magnet on a piece of cotton which way would it point?
The magnet would point towards either the North or South pole, depending on the orientation of the magnet. This is due to the Earth's magnetic field which influences the alignment of the magnet.
How can we determine the poles of an odd shaped magnet?
You can hang the magnet up on a string, so that it can rotate freely. In that case, it should align with the Earth's magnetic field.
If you hang a magnet from of string what would it do?
The magnet would align itself with the Earth's magnetic field and point in a north-south direction. This is because magnets have a property called magnetization that causes them to align with the magnetic field lines.
How will you find out which one is magnet when two identical bars are given one of them is a magnet and the other is a simple iron bar?
One way is to suspend each bar from a string tied around the middle of the bar. The magnetized bar should rotate to orient itself with the Earth north and south magnetic poles. The other bar will just hang there.
Where are the poles on a fridge magnet?
The poles on a spherical magnet are at the positive side and the negative side. Just like that of our earth which has both a north and south pole. The magnetic field is described as loops going from the north pole too the south pole, just as a normal bar magnet would behave. However a spherical electromagnet can be made such that the poles are constantly changing and never in one spot for too long. The answer to your question is impossible without more information or experimentation with the magnet. An easy way to test which is north and south is to hang the magnet on a string and then positively or negatively charge a nylon rod by rubbing a material on it(google which will make it negative or positivel) and hold it near all the sides. One side will be repulsed then that would be the sign of whatever the rod is charged with. I hope that this long winded answer helps.As a note north is positive and south is negative

Is the pen at rest or in motion when you hang it?
The pen is at rest when you hang it because it is stationary and not moving.
Is the field of a magnet north to south or south to north?
This can't be seen with the unaided eye. But if you hang the magnet on a string, the end that points north is the magnet's north pole - it alligns itself that way, due to the Earth's magnetic field.This can't be seen with the unaided eye.

How do you make a compass using a bar magnet?
I guess the easiest way to make it turn quite freely is to can hang it from a string.

Is the pen at rest or in motion if you hang it by a piece of string?
The pen is at rest when hanging by a string if it is not swinging or moving. If the pen is swinging or spinning, then it is in motion.
How to determine the polarity of a magnet without a compass?
To determine the polarity of a magnet without a compass, you can use the "hanging method." Hang the magnet from a string and observe how it aligns itself. The end that points north is the north pole, and the opposite end is the south pole.
How can you verify the verticality of an object using a piece of string with a weight on the end?
For this hammer a nail very close to the object into the object and hang the string on that nail. Then let the string with weight stop swinging (best to do it in an enclosed room with no wind). When the string stops swinging, if the straight-edged object is parallel with the string, then the object is completely vertical
Describe the effects and evidence of Earth's magnetic field?
The magnetic field can easily be noted if you hang a magnet from a piece of string, or use a compass; the compass needle is also magnetic. The idea is for the compass or hanging magnet to be able to freely rotate. Since the north pole of the compass needles points north, you can conclude that the south pole of planet Earth is towards the north. Remember that opposite poles attract each other.
What is theName of a piece of furniture the men would hang suit and dress clothes from?
Valet stand
Because of gravity the weight string of a what will hang vertically?
ANY weighted string will hang vertical because of gravity. (Technically, I guess you'd have to specify that the center of gravity of the weight is on the extension of the line that's defined by the string.)
