Question
When a magnet is suspended freely, it points in the ______ direction.
- North and South
- East and West
- North and West
- South – East
Hint:
When a magnet is suspended freely, it points in the north-south direction.
The correct answer is: North and South
- Because the earth's magnetic south pole is in the geographic north direction and its magnetic north pole is in the geographic south, a freely suspended magnet always rests in the north-south direction.
- A magnet aligns itself in an N-S orientation because dissimilar poles repel and as poles attract.
