Answers
Answer:
1. Lodestone is a naturally magnetized piece of mineral magnetite they are naturally occuring magnets which can attract iron.
2.Natural magnet is a ore of iron that attract small piece of iron ,cobalt and nickel etc.
Limitation of natural magnet
1 they have poor magnetic property due to which their attraction power is low.
2 they are not found everywhere and not easily accessible by everyone.
3. Artificial magnet is that prepared artifically by people. EX include an electromagnet, bar magnets etc.
Reasons
1 we need to lift heavy weight.
2 another reason natural magnet are not strong than artificial magnet.
4. To test whether a give rod is made up of iron or cooper simply place near a bar magnet iron rod gets magnetized when place near a bar magnet due to magnetic induction while cooper rod does not get magnitized.
5. Given two material let us suspend them freely from a vertically pole and observe it carefully when they come to rest a magnet when suspended freely will rest only in north south direction according to earth magnetic field but the soft iron bar will rest in any direction.
