Match the Column I with Column II . Column I Column II a. Magnet attracts i. Rests along a particular direction b. Magnet can be repelled ii. Iron c. Magnet if suspended iii. By another magnet freely d. Poles of the magnet iv. Iron filings

a. Magnet attracts - ii. Iron A magnet will always attract objects made of iron. While it will not attract objects such as paper, plastic and wood. Some metals like copper, silver, gold, platinum and aluminium are not attracted to m agnets. b. Magnet can be repelled - iii.
