Answer:
A freely suspended magnet always point in North direction because earth itself behaves as a magnet. This suggests that the Earth itself behaves as a magnet which causes a freely suspended magnet (or magnetic needle) to point always in a particular direction: North and South. The South Pole of the Earth's magnet is in the geographical North because it attracts the North Pole of the suspended magnet and vice versa.
