Many things are magnetic, though in varying degrees, especially special rocks called magnets. Magma, lava underneath the surface of the earth, is highly magnetic, as lava often comes out in special areas on the surface forming a visible magnetic field. Humans are made from soil/dirt, and we have the same minerals in us as the earth does, and since the earth is magnetic, so are we, and scientists have proven that recently. They have found that we have ultramicroscopic minerals in our heads or in our brains that are magnetic, though they don't work the same way as the magnets in animals function. Animals navigate, especially during migration, due to the magnetic field of the earth, like a compass, and God designed them just for that. Also, you can make a makeshift compass by finding a small piece of light metal wire and rubbing it on your head to get static electricity. Now that it is magnetized, place it on a leaf in a pool of water, and it will align like a compass does! All thanks to Bear Grylls and his show of Man vs. Wild on Discovery channel!
What else can I help you with?
Do magnets attract or repel in vacuum?
Vacuum has no effect on the actions of magnets.
Why do magnets repel and attract?
Magnets have a magnetic field that can attract or repel other magnets or magnetic materials. Opposite poles (north and south) attract each other, while like poles (north and north, south and south) repel each other. This is due to the alignment of magnetic domains within the magnets.
What are the two main properties of magnets?
Magnets have two poles north and south. Like poles repel and unlike poles attract.
What would happen if you put the north and the south poles of two magnets together?
If you put the north and south poles of two magnets together, they would attract each other and stick together. Conversely, if you put two like poles (north-north or south-south) together, they would repel each other and push away.
What will like poles of bar magnets do?
Like poles of bar magnets will repel each other, due to the magnetic forces between them pushing them apart. The repulsive force will increase as the poles get closer together.
What type of metals does a magnet repel?
Usually magnets attract any iron based metals. Magnets usually only attract or repel other magnets
When magnets repel and attract what does that mean?
When magnets repel, it means that the same poles (north-north or south-south) are facing each other, creating a force that pushes them apart. When magnets attract, it means that opposite poles (north-south) are facing each other, creating a force that pulls them together.
Conditions that magnets use for them to repel?
Magnets attract or repel other magnets thanks to something called the magnetic force.
What is the force exerted by magnets when they attract or repel each other?
The force exerted by magnets when they attract or repel each other is called magnetic force. This force is caused by the interaction of magnetic fields between the magnets.
Do magnets attract or repel in vacuum?
Vacuum has no effect on the actions of magnets.
How can you use the field lines to determine whether magnets will attract or repel each other?
You can use the direction of the magnetic field lines to determine if magnets will attract or repel each other. If the field lines are pointing in the same direction between two magnets, they will repel each other. If the field lines are pointing in opposite directions, the magnets will attract each other.
What is the opposite of attract on a magnet?
In physics and chemistry, the opposite of attract is repel. (Though, in public relations, the opposite of attract is promote.)
Do magnets repel or attract copper wire?
depends on the content of the copper wire, if its 100% usually it will
What is the term when two magnets do not attract?
repel
What causes magnets to attract each at times and repel each other at other times?
north pole and south pole attract + south pole and north pole attract because opposites attract. two magnets repel each other when the same poles are pulling together. for example, north pole + north pole repel because they are the same.
Can magnets attract and repel other magnets?
Magnets are very much attracted to each other. Magnets have at least two poles: North and South. North poles attract South, and vice-versa. A simple mnemonic to remember this rule is "Opposites attract."
