(Magnetism)

Because the electrons in the magnets are like fluids flowing in a pipe, rectangular or cylindrical or what ever path. They repel because the force or path of the magnet's one pole is outward. So if another magnet's similar pole is moved towards the previous magnet's pole, the tendency of the forces is to repel because they are both in wave-like outward motions pushing away from each other or "Repel.

The reason why opposite poles attract is because these pole sides suck in or pulls the surrounding electrons to the path of the radiating electrons through the other side of the pole. if an opposite pole moves towards this negative pressure provided by the electrons, then the electrons of the opposite pole's radiating force is then "attracted" or gets pulled also by the previous electron force.

Inside objects, there are many, many line like particles. When these particles are all lined up in the same direction, they acquire magnetic properties. When opposite directional particles are brought together, they will stick. These opposites are denoted as North and South.

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 do not quote me on that.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.

Why are there magnetic force in magnets?

Magnets have magnetic force in them, obviously, to attract or repel magnetic materials. The materials could not be attracted without the magnetic force because the magnet forces the magnetic material towards it.
