|
Parts that interact with each other
|
|
What are the parts that make up the magnetic system?
|
the magnet
the object is attracts the magnetic fields surrounding the magnet |
|
What do magnets attract?

What is a magnet?
|
a piece of metal that can pull certain other metallic objects toward itself and hold them
|

Magnets can be used to separate these metals from other materials
|
example:
magnets are used in recycling to sort steel cans from aluminum, and steel parts from glass and plastic |

things made out of:
iron steel nickel |
|

|
|
What is a magentic field?
|
the space around which the force of a magnet is felt. Evidence of a magnetic field can be observed by using iron filings
|
|
Does the shape of the magnetic field vary with the shape of the magnet?
|
Yes
|
|
pattern of magnetic fields
|
1. distance between the line of force are greatest where the force is the weakest.
|
|
Pattern of magnetic field
|
2. lines of force are closest together at the poles where the force is strongest
|
|
Pattern of the magnetic field
|
3. lines of force extend between the North and South poles because they attract each other
|
|
Pattern of the magnetic field
|
4. lines push away (repel) when like poles are facing each other
|
|
Pattern of the magnetic field
|
5. when two manets are placed close together, the lines of force show an interaction between them
|
|

|
things made of iron, steel and nickel can be made into temporary magnets.
|
|
How can you make a temporary magnet?
|
By rubbing a real magnet against the metal of a short period of time.
