What is Magnetic Force and Magnetic Field? NCERT Science Class 6


Magnetic Force and  Magnetic Field


Magnetic Force and  Magnetic Field

The force exerted by a magnet on certain materials, including other magnets, is known as a magnetic force. The force is applied across a large area and includes both attractive and repulsive forces. Two magnets with opposite north and south poles attract one another, while two magnets with comparable north and south poles repel one another. Magnets can exert force across large distances due to magnetic fields.

The magnetic field surrounding a bar magnet can be seen in the image above.


Under a sheet of glass, iron filings (small iron particles) were placed. The iron filings on the glass were attracted by the magnet. The magnetic field's lines of force are depicted by the pattern of iron filings. The concentration of iron filings at the poles indicates that these are the most strong areas. It's also possible to investigate how the magnetic field affects compasses above the magnet.



When two magnets come close together, their magnetic fields interact. You can see how they interact in the diagram. The north and south poles' lines of force attract each other, but the two north poles' lines of force repel each other.

Magnets are attracted to iron, but they can also be attracted to other magnets.



When two magnets with comparable or identical poles are brought near together, they repel one another. The south pole of one magnet, for example, repels the south pole of another. The north pole of one magnet repels the north pole of another in the same way.
When two magnets' opposite poles get near together, they attract each other. The south pole of one magnet, for example, attracts the north pole of another.

Why is Hindi Day celebrated on 14 September?

Why is Hindi Day celebrated on 14 September? After independence, the Government of India set a goal to give an ideal form to the mother tongue of the country and set a target for grammar and orthography using the Devanagari script to bring standardization in writing. Subsequently, on September 14, 1949, the Constituent Assembly decided by a vote that Hindi would be the official language of India. To propagate the importance of this decision and to spread Hindi in every region, India is celebrating Hindi Day every year from 1953 to 14 September, at the request of Rashtrabhasha Prachar Samiti, Wardha. Apart from this, 14 September is also the birthday of Rajendra Singh, who worked tirelessly to make Hindi the official language of India. Hindi Day is observed every year on 14 September to mark the importance of the Hindi language in the country. The Hindi language is one of the oldest languages, which derives most of its academic vocabulary from the Sanskrit language written in the Deva

Magnetic and non-magnetic material Class 6 Science

Magnetic and non-magnetic material  Class 6 Science A magnet is a substance that is drawn to certain magnetic materials like iron, cobalt, and nickel. Magnets have the ability to draw iron to them. Natural magnets are rocks that naturally draw iron. Non-magnetic materials include things like wood, rubber, coins, feathers, leather, etc. that are not drawn to iron. Magnet characteristics It pulls magnetic materials, such as iron. The magnet's two ends are referred to as its poles. The magnet's diametrically opposed poles are drawn together. Heating, hammering, or dropping causes it to lose its characteristics. On the basis of properties types of Magnets Temporary magnets are those magnets that are magnetic for only a little duration. Typically, iron, cobalt, or nickel are used to make them. When they are close to the powerful magnet, they act like a magnet. When they are yanked away from the powerful magnet, they stop being magnetic. Permanent magnets are magnets that have magne
