Q5.

Answer: Bring the bars close to each other. The two bars that repel each other are magnets.
The third is an iron bar.
Q6.
Answer: Use the marked magnet. Repulsion = same pole, attraction = opposite pole.
Q7.
Answer: Suspend the magnet freely. The end pointing towards north is the North pole.
Q8.
Answer: Yes. Earth's geographical north is its magnetic south pole, and geographical south is its
magnetic north pole.
Q9.
Answer:
The mechanic should magnetise the screwdriver by rubbing it several times in one direction with
a bar magnet. The screwdriver will then attract and hold the steel screws.
Q10
Answer:
Magnet X does not move down because the like poles of magnets X and Y are facing each
other, causing repulsion. To bring X in contact with Y, turn either one of the magnets upside
down so that unlike poles face each other and attract.
Q11
Answer:
1 – South (S)
2 – North (N)
