How would you distinguish between soft iron a piece of copper and a magnet?
The soft iron and magnet will attract each other - the copper will not be attracted to either of the other two.
What is a magnetic interaction?
A magnetic interaction is when magnets find a way to unite; interact with each other.
How do you strengthen a magnet?
A magnet can be strengthened by aligning it with an oppositely charged magnet. They will attract to each other and the weakened magnet will be strengthened through the interaction.
Can a magnet attract lightning?
If the magnet is made of metal then it can act as a good conductor to the Earth like any other metal. The fact that it is magnetised does not attract the lightning.
Why do magnet ends sometimes attract each other and sometimes repeal each other?
because of the magnetic fields
Why do magnets attract?

What is the ifference between an electromagnet and a permanent magnet?
Electromagnets and permanent magnets both attract or repel other magnets and attract iron and other substances. An electromagnet is a magnet that is only active when it has a current passing through it; permanent magnets are always active.

Why does a compass needle spin toward the magnet when yu put it near a magnet?
The compass is a magnet too; and magnets attract each other. More specifically, the north pole of one magnet is attracted by the south pole of another magnet.The compass is a magnet too; and magnets attract each other.

Does magnet attract each other in space?

How does a magnet work in a refrigerator?
A magnet is a substance that is made of iron. The molecules in it are arranged in a way different than most magnets which is why the magnet has a tendency to attract materials more. Instead of the fridge magnet having a distinct north or south pole attraction, the fridge magnet has both alternating. This actually gives a stronger force of attraction. When the magnet is brought in contact or brought close to the fridge, the force between the north and south poles of the body of the fridge and the magnet attract each other, and the alternating poles on the magnet attract as well, giving that extra attraction.
