Solution
The correct option is C North-South
Magnets align in the North-South direction when suspended in the air as the magnetic poles of the Earth (which is the strongest magnet around them) are in the North-South direction. The south pole of the magnet is attracted by the earth's magnetic north pole (Geographical South) and the north pole of the magnet is attracted by earth's magnetic south pole (Geographical North).
