Magnets are made from magnetic materials. These are metals that can be magnetised or will be attracted to a magnet. Most materials are not magnetic, but iron, cobalt and nickelare magnetic. Steel is mostly iron, so steel is magnetic too.

How do magnets behave when unlike poles are facing each other?
they attract to eachother... the stick together. <3
Are magnets metal?
Some magnets are metal. Not all magnets are metal (though I can't offhand think of any magnets that don't at least contain metal), and not all metals are magnets.
What are the types of magnets?
Ferro-magnets, permanent magnets, temporary magnets, and electromagnets. Ferro-magnets are magnets that are magnetic at a higher temperature than room temperature. do not quote me on that. permanent magnets are magnets that are always magnets, they are the kinds you use a lot. Temporary magnets are things that are magnetic in an extrenal magnetic field. Last but not least, electromagnets. Electromagnets are coils of wire around a cobalt, nickel, or iron. When ou run electricity through the wire, the core and wire become magnetic.
What are the 4 magnetic materials?
the 4 magnetic materials are iron, steel, copper and nickel
What is painting pictures with magnets?
ainting pictures with magnets
Why the magnets are not attract each other in space?
Magnets behave exactly the same in space as they do on Earth. Who told you that they don't ??
why do magnets behave in a different ways?
So that they can come together quickly
Why do electrons behave like tiny magnets?
a spinning electron produces a magnetic field that makes the electron behave like a tiny magnet
How does a magnets North Pole behave when brought near another North Pole?
they move away
The bond that hold atoms together behave most like?
electrical magnets.
Why aren't all atoms magnets?
While electrons behave like magnets, not all atoms are magnets. Electrons typically pair up with spins opposite each other making their fields cancel each other.
How do magnets behave when unlike poles are facing each other?

When a magnet is broken into small pieces do the smaller pieces behave as magnets as well?
In most cases yes.
Why do atoms behave like a magnet?
Atoms behave as magnets for two reasons. First, the electrons which make up the atom are themselves magnets, with magnetic dipole moments of magnitude one Bohr magneton Second, the atoms are ''orbiting'' the nucleus, and this orbital motion etcAnswered by,Justin James
Why do electrons behave like magnets?
Electrons move in orbit and thus produce a magnetic field like a electromagnet.
How does a magnets north pole behave when brought near another north pole near a magnets south pole?
When two of the same poles are brought together they will repel each other. When opposite poles are brought together they attract. Your question was a little unclear, so I hope this helps.
Will real magnets attract or repel electromagnets?
Electromagnets are just as "real" as permanent magnets and behave in exactly the same way (as long as there's current flowing through them). So, yes: the north pole of a permanent magnet will attract the south pole, and repel the north pole, of an electromagnet.
