What is an artificial magnet? State two reasons why do we need artificial magnets .

उत्तर
An artificial magnet is a magnetized piece of iron (or other magnetic material). Artificial magnets are required because natural magnets have odd and irregular shape and they are not magnetically very strong. Artificial magnets can be given desired shape and made very strong.

You are given the magnetic field pattern of a magnet. How will you find out from it where the magnetic field is the strongest?
The magnetic field lines:
(a) intersect at right angles to one another
(b) interest at an angle 45° to each another
(c) do not cross one another
(d) cross at an angle of 60° to one anotherv
Fill in the following blank with suitable words:
The lines of ........... round a straight current-carrying conductor are in the shape of ...........
In the straight wire A, current is flowing in the vertically downwards direction whereas in wire B the current is flowing in the vertically upward direction. What is the direction of magnetic field:
(a) in wire A?
(b) in wire B?
Name the rule which you have used to get the answer.
If you hold a coil of wire next to a magnet, no current will flow in the coil. What else is needed to induce a current?
How will you test whether a given rod is made of iron or copper?
[Hint : Iron rod gets magnetised when placed near a bar magnet by magnetic induction, while copper rod does not get magnetised]
Explain the following :
When two pins are hung by their heads from the same pole of a magnet, their pointed ends moves apart.
Figure. shows a bar magnet placed on the table top with its north pole pointing towards south. The arrow shows the north-south direction. There are no other magnets or magnetic materials nearby.
