1. Magnets and Magnetism
Created by Marie @ The Homeschool Daily

2. Magnet: materials that
attract iron or materials
containing iron
Not all
metals are
magnetic

3. All magnets…
•Have 2 poles
•Exert forces
•Are
Surrounded
by a magnetic
field

4. Poles: parts of a magnet where
the magnetic effects are
strongest

5. If a magnet is broken, there will
still be two poles.

6. Magnetic Force: force of repulsion or
attraction between the poles of
magnets
Magnetic poles
are like electric
charges in that
like poles repel
and opposite
poles attract.

7. Magnetic
Field: region
around a
magnet in
which
magnetic
forces act

8. You can see a magnetic field
created by iron filings
surrounding this bar magnet.

9. How can a magnet become
unmagnetized?
•Dropping a
magnet
•Striking or
hitting it too
hard
•Increasing the
temperature

10. Permanent or Temporary Magnet?
• Permanent magnet:
tends to retain their
magnetic properties
• Temporary magnet:
made from materials
that are easy to
magnetize but tend
to lose their
magnetization easily.
