Best Answer

because they either attract or repel from each other depending on what side is against one side. You can do a lot with magnets for example stick things to the fridge or pick up loose pieces of metal or even shrapnel or broken medal that fell on the floor that you don't want someone to stand on.

They are essential for generating electricity.
