On breaking a magnet into five pieces, each piece will behave as a magnet because each piece of magnet consists of both north poles and south poles. So, five north poles will be present in the broken pieces.

Avery strong magnetic field is created by electrified coils in the guideway wails, which propels the trains.

Yes, Riya can help her mother to find the needle by using a magnet. Since needle is made of iron so it will easily stick to the magnet.

Earth behaves like a huge bar magnet, with poles at its ends. The north pole of this bar magnet points approximately towards the geographical south pole and its south pole points approximately towards the geographical north pole. The north pole of a freely suspended magnet points towards the geographical north pole because it is attracted by the earth's magnetic south pole and the south pole of a freely suspended magnet points towards the geographical south pole because it is attracted by the earth's magnetic north pole. Hence, the freely suspended magnet always aligns itself in the north-south direction.

(i) Attractive property: A magnet has the property to attract some substance like iron, cobalt and nickel when brought near it. This property of magnet is called the attractive property.
(ii) Directive property: If we suspend a magnet freely with a thread, then it always aligns itself in the geographic north-south direction when it comes to rest. This is called the directive property of a magnet.

Amagnetic keeper is a piece of soft iron. In keepers, two magnets are arranged with their opposite poles lying side by side. A piece of wood should be kept between them and two pieces of soft iron (keepers) should be placed across the poles.

Temporary magnet is the magnet which loses its magnetism as soon as the source of magnetism is removed. It is usually made up of soft iron.

The two magnetic materials are :
(i) Iron (ii) Cobalt.
The two non-magnetic materials are :
(i) Leather (ii) Plastic

When South pole of a magnet comes in contact with South pole of the other magnet, then it repels each other because like poles always repel each other.

If the two unlike poles of a magnet is put together, then a force of attraction develops between them.

No, it is not possible to isolate North and South pole of a magnet.

No, the materials like iron bar, plastic or wooden scale inside the statue will not come in the same direction.

A freely suspended magnet orients themselves in the North-South direction.

Magnetic compass is the instrument used to find the direction.

Magnetite is the name of natural material which acts as a magnet.
