An object that attracts material containing iron and always faces the same direction when moving freely is lodestone.

Nickel and cobalt are two other metals, in addition to iron, that display this type of magnetism. If you wish more information it is available on the wikipedia article entitled 'magnet'.
The magnetic force in objects like iron and cobalt is created by the alignment of magnetic domains within the material. These materials have unpaired electrons that align in the same direction, creating a net magnetic field. This alignment allows them to act as magnets and attract or repel other magnetic materials.
When an object is magnetized, the alignment of the electrons within the atoms of the material becomes coordinated, creating a magnetic field. This alignment allows the material to exhibit magnetic properties such as attracting or repelling other objects.
No, magnets can attract to a variety of materials based on their magnetic properties, not just shiny objects. Magnets attract objects that contain ferromagnetic materials like iron, cobalt, and nickel, regardless of their appearance.
Negatively charged objects
Negatively charged objects can attract positively charged objects, repel other negatively charged objects, and cause static electricity buildup.
Magnets.
You can attract objects that contain iron by using a magnet, as iron is a magnetic material. When you bring a magnet near objects containing iron, the magnetic force will cause them to be attracted to the magnet.
When objects are magnetized, the magnetic domains within the material align in the same direction, creating a magnetic field. This alignment increases the overall magnetic strength of the material, allowing it to attract or repel other magnetic objects.
The magnetic force in objects is caused by the alignment of the magnetic moments of the atoms within the material. When these magnetic moments align in the same direction, they create a magnetic field and attract or repel other magnetic materials.
Objects of the same material attract each other due to the alignment of their atoms. When two objects are brought close together, their atoms tend to align in a way that creates a small attractive force between them, known as van der Waals forces. This attraction is responsible for the objects coming together.
RADAR determines the distance and direction to anything that reflectsradio waves ... usually material objects, but it responds to atmosphericphenomena too.
There is a force of gravity in each direction between every two objects that have mass. The forces attract the two objects toward each other. All the time. Doesn't matter what the objects are, or how far apart they are. Doesn't matter whether they're moving or still.
Objects comprise of charges.Opposite charges attract each other.
Magnetism in objects is created by the alignment of the magnetic domains within the material, which are tiny regions where the magnetic moments of atoms are aligned in the same direction.
The magnetic field of a short wire can attract or repel nearby objects that are sensitive to magnetic forces. This effect is stronger the closer the objects are to the wire and can cause them to move or align in a certain direction.
Magnetic and electric fields are considered force fields because they can exert forces on objects within their influence. These fields interact with objects by exerting forces on charged particles within the objects. For example, a magnetic field can attract or repel a magnet, while an electric field can attract or repel charged objects. The strength and direction of these forces depend on the properties of the field and the objects involved.
They do not. Rather, objects with opposite charges attract each other.
