Magnets are objects or structures that exhibit an electromagnetic field formed by the alignment of their atomic structure. They attract iron and other materials by including the other atoms in their field. Magnets will repel other magnets that are aligned in the opposite direction, because the fields are polarized (there are positive and negative poles and like poles repel).
A magnet is something that atracts or repels to a item that can be attracted.It also has a negative and a positive they will conect together. IT is also a good game to play!!!!!!!!!
Magnet is a thing which can attracted by metals. The official definition for the word magnet is "a person or thing that has a powerful attraction."
