Magnetism
Poles, Domains, Properties, Force and Fields
Magnetic Poles
- The ends of magnets are called poles
- Magnet effect is strongest at poles
- North Pole
- South pole
Magnetic Force
- Produced when poles interact
- The attraction or repulsion between magnets
- Force-Push or pull that causes an object to move
Magnetic interactions
- Poles that are unlike attract
- Pole that are alike repel
- N-S and S-N attract
- S-S and N-N repel
Magnetic Poles
Properties of Magnets
- Attracted to iron
- Attraction/repulsion to other magnets
- Points north when swinging freely
Magnetic Fields
- The area around a magnet with force
- Strong field-Lines close together
- Weak force-Lines far apart
- Strongest at the poles
Magnetic Domains
- Atoms face in same direction which creates magnetism
- Magnetism depends on the structure of the atoms
