bar magnet

Bar Magnets make great helpers to teach us about the world. They are unique due to the magnetic field they carry around them. Things like paperclips or nails can be drawn to the magnet by this magnetic field, as though it were an invisible force. We are going to explain how small disc magnetss work through fun, simple science experiments and where we can find them in our day-to-day life.

For those unfamiliar with small disc magnetss, below is a simple primer to help you get started. Bar magnet: A bar magnet is a simple item of iron or other metal. It has 2 ends (welp call this as North and South Poles. Those ends are so important because they determine how the magnet looks like, that it reacts to magnets in other agriculture. North pole and South Pool stick together when Two opposite poles are brought closer to each other. When you try to put same poles together (north/north or south/south poles), they will repell each other, not attract. It is a property which defines our magnets and what makes them so intriguing!

How to Use Bar Magnets for Simple Science Experiments

Bar magnets can be used for a lot of fun experiments that lets you explore more! A fun experiement is creating a basic compass. For that, you can take a needle and rub along it over a steel and magnets in one direction many times. Finally, place the cork with the needle in its appropriate position. Finally, place the cork into a bowl of water. If you did it correctly, the needle should be pointing to the north! Whatever the reason, it tells us something about how magnets can be used to find direction.

One of the experiments that may be observed is to see how the magnetic field around a steel and magnets functions. This can be achieved by keeping the bar magnet on any flat surface like a table. Next, scatter some iron filings around the magnet. When you do that, you will see the filings begin to stack in patterns. We can see the shape of the magnetic field by looking at these patterns, so tecnically this would mean we are actually seeing!
