Yes, when you bring a bar magnet close to the first iron nail, it will induce magnetism in the nail, making it act like a magnet. This induced magnetism can attract and lift a second nail, as long as the second nail is made of a ferromagnetic material like iron. The strength of the attraction will depend on the magnetism induced in the first nail and the distance between the two nails.
Yes, steel can be magnetized and will attract to a south pole magnet due to its ferromagnetic properties. When a steel material is in close proximity to a magnet, the magnetic domains within the steel align with the external magnetic field, leading to attraction between the two.
Yes, a magnet can attract unmagnetized iron. This occurs because unmagnetized iron has domains of magnetic moments that can align with the magnetic field of the magnet, causing the iron to become temporarily magnetized. When brought close to a magnet, the unmagnetized iron will experience a force that draws it toward the magnet.
Like poles of a magnet, which are either both north or both south, repel each other, while unlike poles, one north and one south, attract each other. To identify the poles, you can bring a known magnet close to the magnet in question; if they repel, they are like poles, and if they attract, they are unlike poles. Additionally, a compass can be used, as the north pole of the compass will point towards a south pole of the magnet and vice versa.
To determine the poles of an unmarked magnet, you can use a known magnet or a compass. Bring the compass close to the magnet; the compass needle will point towards the magnet's south pole, as it is attracted to the north pole of the compass. Alternatively, you can use another magnet: the north pole of the second magnet will be attracted to the south pole of the unmarked magnet and repelled by its north pole. This interaction can help you identify the poles of the unmarked magnet.
To attract the south pole of a bar magnet, you would need to place it near the north pole of another magnet or in close proximity to the bar magnet's north pole. Since opposite poles attract, positioning the south pole of the bar magnet toward the north pole of the magnet shown will result in a pull toward the magnet. This attraction occurs because magnetic fields interact in such a way that opposite poles draw closer together.
That depends how strong the magnet is. But a normal refrigerator magnet needs to be around 1 cm and less to attract a metal object. Have a nice day!

The force is called "magnetism". The refrigerator is not magnetic, but the magnet will temporarily induce magnetism in the refrigerator's metal - the part that is close to the magnet.
Like poles repel, opposites attract. So a N pole of one bar magnet will repel the N pole of another bar magnet. And the same applies to two S poles.
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.
The refrigerator is usually not permanently magnetic; the magnet will induce magnetism temporarily in the refrigerator when it is brought close to it.
When two magnets are brought together, the opposite poles will attract one another, but the like poles will repel one another. This is similar to electric charges. Like charges repel, and unlike charges attract.
In the context of magnets, "attract" refers to the force that pulls two opposite magnetic poles together. This force occurs when the north pole of one magnet is brought close to the south pole of another magnet, causing them to pull towards each other.
An electromagnet will attract materials that contain iron, nickel, or cobalt. These materials are ferromagnetic, which means they are strongly influenced by magnetic fields and will be pulled towards the magnet when in close proximity.
Magnets are one of the rare items found in nature that are able to exert control over other objects without actually touching them. If you hold a magnet close to a certain type of object, it will either attract or repel it. This is due to the principles of magnetism.
