MAGNETISM
Magnetism is a force that pulls or pushes certain objects,
caused by moving electric charges or special properties of materials.
FUNDAMENTAL ASPECT OF MAGNETISM
-
Magnetic Fields: Areas around magnets where magnetic forces are felt.
-
Magnetic Poles: Two ends of a magnet, north and south, that attract or repel.
-
Magnetic Force: The push or pull that magnets exert on certain materials.
-
Magnetic Domains: Small regions within materials where atoms align to create magnetism.
-
Electric Currents: Moving charges that create magnetic fields.
-
Magnetic Induction: The process by which a material becomes magnetic when exposed to a magnetic field.
-
Attraction and Repulsion: Like poles repel, while opposite poles attract.
IMPORTANCE OF MAGNETISM
