A freely suspended magnet comes to rest along the N-S direction.
Explanation:
-Irrespective of direction of suspension, the bar eventually comes to rest at earth's N-S direction.
-Bar end that points to Earth's north is called the North Pole. Bar end that point's to earth's south is called the South pole.
-The reason for this default positioning is called the Directive Property. This is because earth acts as an external magnetic field.
