What are the four magnetic materials?
Iron, cobalt, Nickel & steel
Give two examples of non magnetic materials?
Aluminium and copper
What does N and S stand for?
N = North seeking pole
S = South Seeking pole
The two laws of magnetism are…
- magnets can exert force on other magnets
- magnets can exert forces on unmagnetised magnetic materials (UMMs)
A. When two north poles come close, they…
B. When a north and South Pole come close, they…
A. Repel
B. Attract
Where are the strongest parts of a magnet?
The poles (N & S)
What are the two things that can be learnt from a magnetic field diagram?
- The closer the field lines, the stronger the force (closest at the poles)
- The arrows give the direction of the force (North & South)
What creates the magnetic field around earth
Electric currents due to the motion of convection of a mixture of molten iron and nickel in earths outer core
There are _ _ _ _ _ inside a magnet
A _ _ _ _ _ _ is a group of atoms with _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ poles
- Poles
- Domain
Give three examples of what magnets can do?
- Fridge door seal
- Purse clasp
- MRI scanner
What do the domains look like in an UMM
They are pointing in lots of different directions
What do the domains look like in a magnet?
They point from North to South
How do you demagnetise a magnet?
Heating or hitting it
