Magnets are composed of various materials. These include iron, cobalt, nickel, and some rare earth elements. Naturally occurring magnets are called lodestones.
A magnet often has two poles refered to as the North and South poles. These poles may be located in a variety of positions such as near the ends, on opposite faces, or even on the edges of a magnet.
Oppositly charged poles attract each other. Magnetism is seen whenever electrically charged particles are in motion. This comes from the movement of electrons in an electric current, resulting in electromagnetism, or from the quantum-mechanical spin and orbital motion of electrons, resulting in what are known as permanent magnets.

Why don't magnets stick to magnets?
Magnet sticks to another magnet when north pole of the first magnet approaches the south pole of the second magnet.
Do steel wire screen sticks to magnet?
Steel will stick to magnets, but stainless steel will not.
Why do magnets stick to refrigerator doors?
They magnetic and magnets are attracted to metal objects. since the refrigerator has metal in it the magnet sticks to it.
What will magnets do?
React to the nearby presence of another magnet
Is there a magnet only attract magnets?
all magnets attract ferrous metals (metals containing iron) and the opposite poles of another magnet.
What is it called when iron sticks to a magnet?
When iron sticks to a magnet, it is referred to as magnetic attraction. This phenomenon occurs because iron is a ferromagnetic material, meaning it can be magnetized and is attracted to magnets. The magnetic field of the magnet aligns the magnetic domains in the iron, causing it to be pulled toward the magnet.
What is a magnets magnetic field?
Whatever it is that enables a magnet to push another magnet without ever touching it, is called the "magnetic field". It is an invisible attribute of a magnet that surrounds the magnet and exerts forces on other magnets and some non magnets, like iron.
How can you stick 2 magnets?
You get one magnet and put it to another and then they are together like magnets... no need to thank me for the answer.
Why does the magnet exert a force on another magnet when two magnets are not in contact?
because they love each other
What is Difference of bar and horceshoe magnet?
One key difference between a bar magnet and a horseshoe magnet is their shape. Bar magnets are long and rectangular, while horseshoe magnets are U-shaped. Another difference is their magnetic field strength, with horseshoe magnets typically having a stronger magnetic field at the poles compared to bar magnets.
How can YOU use magnets?
You could use magnets to push things like another magnet or you could pull metal things to it.
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.
