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.

Lessons-Worksheets-Question Papers-CBSE Class 2 English CBSE 2nd Class English – One and Many  In this blog, we share the spelling rules used in the concept of  One  and Many. When there is only one of a naming word (noun), it is said to be a  singular noun . When a noun shows more than one, it is said to be in the  plural . We can add  –S, -es, -ves or ies  to show that there is more than one noun.  For example,  we say many birds, four biscuits, six brushes. But for the students of  Class 2 , it’s very difficult and confusing to understand where to use  s , es, ves or ies  in the form of many. Don’t worry, it looks difficult, but it is very easy as in grammar each concept has a set of rules that need to practice. Noun ending with  –s, -x, -o, -sh, -ch, and –ss  form plurals by taking  –es. Look at these pairs of words: Bus – Buses Brush – Brushes Continue ..... Click here ...

This movement, which stressed a single-minded, ardent devotion to God, is seen as the most characteristic act of religious progress during the Middle Ages. In the 12th and 13th centuries, Kabir Das was a key figure in the Bhakti Movement. As a result of the movement, Kabir Das' poems and religious writings attained widespread fame. Kabir Das was raised up by a Muslim family. However, his religious beliefs were influenced by his Hindu teacher Ramananda, who regarded Rama as the highest God. The first Sikh guru and the founder of Sikhism was Guru Nanak. He vehemently opposed prejudice based on customs, rivalry, and caste in religion. Nanak was raised in a Hindu household and from an early age began to exhibit spiritual tendencies. He helped the indigent and underprivileged. His followers began r...
