What is the term for the attraction or repulsion between the poles of the magnets?
magnetic force
Magnetic poles are similar to electric charges in that they both can repel and attarct one another?
Yes, the rules for applying attraction and repulsion forces are the same for electric charges and magnets.
True or false that the further apart two magnets are from one another the stronger the forces that attract or repeal the magnet?
False. The magnetic force of attraction or repulsion between the magnetic poles is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the poles. So farther apart two magnets the force between them becomes weaker.
What difference does distance make on the magnetic force of attraction between two magnets?
Magnetic force of attraction is invesely proportional to distance between two poles.
What is an example of repulsion?
2 magnets
Does shape effect the magnetic repulsion between two magnets?
The further the magnets, the lesser the attraction/repulsion.
What is the term for the attraction or repulsion between the poles of the magnets?
magnetic force
What is it called when two magnets stick to each other?
It is called Magnetism. You have probably learned about it in school
Do nails attract through wood?
If you are referring to magnets, yes. Wood does not stop magnetic attraction or repulsion.
Why are magnets kept in the keepers?
when magnets are kept loose their magnetic power becomes weak. therefore a non magnetic substance should be kept in between of two magnets while storing them. so that there is no continuous attraction or repulsion between them.
What is The force of repulsion or attraction between poles of magnets?
Magnetism
What is force between two magnets called?
repulsion or attraction between two magnets which leads to calculation of a positive work in the interaction shows the presence of a new force named the magnetic force.
Magnets can push as well as pull what is that called?
Magnetic Repulsion
Why the magnets do not attract each other in space?
They certainly do. Please note, however, that at larger distance the magnetic force decreases. If objects are far away, the magnetic attraction or repulsion can become insignificant.
What two things are required for magnets to function properly?
Attraction and repulsion
What are materials attracted by a magnet called?
It is called the magnetic force. This is a force caused by the attraction or repulsion of the magnetic fields of the materials.
Magnetic poles are similar to electric charges in that they both can repel and attarct one another?
Yes, the rules for applying attraction and repulsion forces are the same for electric charges and magnets.
