Which of the following is not a property of magnets When a magnet is suspended on a thread it shall rest with one end pointing to the north direction of the earth and the other end to the south direction of the earth. A magnet has 2 ends where the power of attraction is greatest A magnet attracts magnetic materials and does not attract non-magnetic materialsMagnetism is a basic physical quantityQuestion 22 of 37 23. Why are magnets placed in an East-West direction when they are being demagnetized? To retain magnetism Not to retain magnetism So that they do not retain some magnetism due to earth's magnetic field All of the aboveQuestion 23 of 37 24. Which of the following is not a method of magnetization? Induction De-hammering Stroking Electrical methodQuestion 24 of 37 25. Which of the following statements is correct about a magnetic field?

Destroying the magnetic properties of a magnet is called? De-hammering Magnetization Demagnetization NoneQuestion 26 of 37 27. State the Right-Hand Grip rule as applied to electromagnets If a coil carrying a current is grasped in the right hand such that the fingers point in the direction of current in the coil, then the thumb points in the direction of South Pole. If a coil carrying a current is grasped in the right hand such that the fingers point in the direction of current in the coil, then the thumb points in the direction of the North pole of the magnetic field generated by the current. If on viewing one end of the bar, the current flows in clockwise direction, then that end is North Pole. If anticlockwise then it is South Pole. None of aboveQuestion 27 of 37 28.
