Why do magnets attract?

the south side of one magnet attract to the north side of the other magnet; opposites attract. The molecules get attracted.


What is the ifference between an electromagnet and a permanent magnet?

Electromagnets and permanent magnets both attract or repel other magnets and attract iron and other substances. An electromagnet is a magnet that is only active when it has a current passing through it; permanent magnets are always active.


When a magnet moves why does the other one move with it?

When one magnet moves, it generates a changing magnetic field around it which induces a current in the other magnet, causing it to move in response to the changing magnetic field. This is due to the magnetic attraction or repulsion between the two magnets based on their alignment.


What happens when two opposite sides of a magnet are in contact with each other?

When two opposite sides of a magnet are in contact with each other, the magnetic fields align and attract each other, causing the magnet to stick together. This is due to the attraction between the opposite poles of the magnet.


Jalil has a magnet and two needle. The magnet attracts both needles but the needles fo not attract each other. He strokes one needle with the magnet. What happens when he moves the two needles near ea?

The needle that was stroked by the magnet will become magnetized and attract the other needle. The unmagnetized needle will not be affected, so it will not attract the other needle.


An unmagnetized needle will not attract another unmagnetized needle but if one end of the needle is in contact with a magnet the other end will attract the other needle explain?

When one end of the unmagnetized needle is in contact with a magnet, the magnetic field from the magnet induces magnetism in the needle. This results in the end of the needle touching the magnet becoming a magnetic pole, and the other end becoming an opposite pole. The opposite poles attract each other, causing the unmagnetized needle to attract another needle when in contact with a magnet.


What is the difference between iron and magnet?

Iron is a chemical element that is a metal and is found in many everyday objects. A magnet is an object that produces a magnetic field and can attract iron and other materials with magnetic properties. So, while iron is a material, a magnet is a tool that uses magnetic properties to attract certain materials.


What R and A are things that magnet can do to each other?

repel and attract


Why would the two poles of a magnet attract to your fridge?

The refrigerator is usually not permanently magnetic; the magnet will induce magnetism temporarily in the refrigerator when it is brought close to it.


How does a magnet in a refrigerator works?

A magnet is a substance that is made of iron. The molecules in it are arranged in a way different than most magnets which is why the magnet has a tendency to attract materials more. Instead of the fridge magnet having a distinct north or south pole attraction, the fridge magnet has both alternating. This actually gives a stronger force of attraction. When the magnet is brought in contact or brought close to the fridge, the force between the north and south poles of the body of the fridge and the magnet attract each other, and the alternating poles on the magnet attract as well, giving that extra attraction.
