write properties of magnets
Answers
• Attractive property of magnet: A magnet attracts ferromagnetic materials like iron, nickel, and cobalt.
• Directive property of magnet: If a magnet is suspended from rigid support such that it can rotate freely, the magnet always points towards the north-south direction.
• Poles of a magnet: Magnets have two poles, where the strength of the magnetic field is the strongest. Magnetic poles exist in pairs. No matter how small a magnet is, it is impossible to separate one pole..
• Like poles always repel each other but opposite poles attract.
• The magnetic force (attraction or repulsion) between two objects is inversely proportional to the distance between them. The force stronger when the objects are close.
