2. How can you prove that magnets attract iron ?
Answers
Answer:
1.An example of a natural magnet is the lodestone, also called magnetite. Other examples are pyrrhotite, ferrite, and columbite. Examples of permanent artificial magnets include refrigerator magnets and neodymium magnets.
2.When exposed to the magnetic field, the atoms begin to align their electrons with the flow of the magnetic field, which makes the iron magnetized as well. This, in turn, creates an attraction between the two magnetized objects.
Answer:
we can define magnetism as something which attract towards as natural magnet are found naturally so it is called natural magnets.we can prove that magnets can attract iron by doing activity by taking two magnets for only one and a piece of iron then we have to see whether it attracts or not and it is concluded that magnets attract iron
