Charge is an electric field,
A magnet has a magnetic field.
If an object is attracted by a magnet it does not signify whither or not it has a charge.

Why is a neutral dust particle attracted to a charged object?
If charge can flow within the neutral particle and you place it near a charged object, like charges tend to move toward the object and opposite charges move away. This splitting of the charge gives the neutral dust particle an electric dipole moment.
What is the effect of a paper clip on to a magnet?
Well, there are two poles to a magnet. A negative one and a positive one. Since metals are good conductors of charge and the paper clip is a metal object, they will attract. The charge of the paperclip is opposite the charge to one of the poles of the magnet.
What are induced charges?
Due to an object nearby, the electrons move to a specific direction as they are either attracted or repelled by it. Such as if there is a negatively charged object near an uncharged object, the electrons in the uncharged object will move as far away from the negative object as possible, and this is what you called an induced charge.
What is charge by induction?
Charging by Induction is a method of charging a neutral object, using a charged object, without establishing physical contact between them. _______________________________________________________________________ When a charged object induces a charge on another object without touching it.
Accumulation of electric charges on a object?
The build up of a charge on an object can be referred to as a static build up charge.
Which object will be strongly attracted to a magnet?
Anything with iron in it.
How do you know if an object is going to be attracted to a magnet?
Metals and other magnets are the only objects that are attracted to magnets. However, many metals are NOT attracted to magnets. Copper, stainless steel, brass, gold, silver, zinc, and aluminum are a few metals that are NOT attracted to magnets. The best way to discover if the object will be attracted to a magnet is to introduce it to a magnet.
Does weight size or texture affect whether or not the object is attracted to a magnet?
NO!
What effect will charge object have on an object with the opposite charge?
It will attract it and/or be attracted to it. Opposite charges attract.
Why will a charged object be attracted to you?
Opposite charges attract, so if the object has a different charge than you, it would be attracted to you.
Which subatomic particle will be attracted by a positive charge object?
Electrons because of their opposite charge.
What will effect will a charged object have on an object with the opposite charge?
It will attract it and/or be attracted to it. Opposite charges attract.
What objects are atracted to a magnet?
Every object is attracted by magnets. Some more, some much less.
What material must be found in an object in order for a magnet be attracted to it?
iron,steel,metal,colbalt,and of course magnisium
Will an objects weight affect whether or not it is attracted to the magnet?
The force of attraction between a magnet and another object is completely unaffected by the object's weight, color, texture, age, density, religion, political affiliation, or gender preference.
How is the charge brought back to normal?
If an object is negatively charged, electrons will eventually drain off the charged object into the environment until the charge is neutral. If an object is positively charged, electrons will be attracted from the environment onto the charged object until its charge is neutral.
Which object is attracted by magnet?
medal mostly yet other unidentified objects may stick such as fake silver or gold are magnetic.
