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

Sources of Food Materials Class 6 Science Food : All living things require energy for development, function, and repair, and food is a source of energy. Sources of Food Materials There are two primary sources of food : Plants and Animals Foods derived from plants include fruits, vegetables, grains like wheat and rice, sugar, chocolate, and others. Certain plant parts, such as the flower, roots, leaves, stem, and seeds, are used to provide food for us. The following table shows the food get from the parts of the plant . Part of the plant Food Root                 Radish, potato, turnip, sweet potato, beetroot, etc Stem                 In certain plants, stem grows underground and store food.

What are Various Forms of Energy? Law of Conservation of Energy   We will explore various forms of energy such as heat, chemical, electrical, nuclear energy, and the Law of Conservation of Energy. NCERT School Classes   What is Energy? Energy can be referred to as the capacity to do work. There are various forms of energy such as heat energy, chemical energy, etc. Some forms of energy have been discussed in detail in this article. Different forms of Energy   Heat Energy When a cup of hot coffee is left unattended for some time, you may find that the coffee gets cooled down. This is due to the heat lost to the surrounding which is at a lower temperature as compared to the coffee. Heat energy is a form of energy extracted from the total kinetic energy (KE) of an object's particles. It is transmitted due to the spontaneous motion of molecules, which causes them to bounce off of each other, transferring energy in the process. It's also known as "energy in transit" on occa
