The opposite of attract when referring to a magnet is repel.
Magnets attract when their opposite poles are near each other, creating a magnetic force that pulls the magnets together. This attraction occurs due to the alignment of the magnetic domains in the materials.
The North Pole of one magnet and the South Pole of another magnet attract each other. This is due to the alignment of magnetic fields, where opposite poles are attracted to each other.
The strong magnet is attracted to the door magnet because opposite poles attract each other - the door magnet was likely oriented to attract the strong magnet. The metal thumbtacks are not attracted to the strong magnet because the magnetism of the thumbtacks is weaker compared to the door magnet.
A magnet sticks to a refrigerator because the refrigerator door is made of a ferromagnetic material, such as steel. The magnet and the refrigerator door have opposite magnetic poles, causing them to attract and stick together.
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.
attract
Yes. The "north pole" of one magnet will attract the "south pole" of another. Opposite charges attract, likecharges repel.
anything that contains metal, or the opposite polar attraction for the magnet (i.e. the + will attract to the - and vice versa)
No, opposite polarities attract, alike polarities repel.
Then you will end up with two magnets, each half will be a new magnet, with both a north and a south pole. But the magnet will be weaker.
all magnets attract ferrous metals (metals containing iron) and the opposite poles of another magnet.
In physics and chemistry, the opposite of attract is repel. (Though, in public relations, the opposite of attract is promote.)
You have the situation reversed. Like poles repel, opposite poles attrect
magnetic field to attract opposite sides of another magnet
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.
Magnets attract when their opposite poles are near each other, creating a magnetic force that pulls the magnets together. This attraction occurs due to the alignment of the magnetic domains in the materials.
Nope they must be opposite poles
