  1. Magnetism

  2. Magnets have been known for centuries. The Chinese and Greeks knew about the “magical” properties of magnets. The ancient Greeks used a stone substance called “magnetite.” They discovered that the stone always pointed in the same direction. Later, stones of magnetite called “lodestones” were used in navigation.

  3. William Gilbert, an English physician, first proposed in 1600 that the earth itself is a magnet, and he predicted that the Earth would be found to have magnetic poles.

  4. What is Magnetism? Magnetism is the force of attraction or repulsion of a magnetic material due to the arrangement of its atoms, particularly its electrons.

  5. The ends of a magnet are where the magnetic effect is the strongest. The ends of the magnets are called “poles.” Each magnet has 2 poles – 1 north, 1 south.

  6. Like repels like… Opposites attract!

  7. Poles of a magnet always Come in pairs!

  8. If you cut a magnet in half, you get 2 magnets!

  9. Magnetic Fields The region where the magnetic forces act is called the “magnetic field”

  10. Atoms themselves have magnetic properties due to the spin of the atom’s electrons. • Groups of atoms join so that their magnetic fields are all going in the same direction which we call “domains”

  11. When an unmagnetized substance is placed in a magnetic field, the substance can become magnetized. This happens when the spinning electrons line up in the same direction.

  12. An unmagnetized substance looks like this…

  13. While a magnetized substance looks like this…

  14. How to break a magnet: 1. Drop it 2. Heat it This causes the domains to become random again!

  15. The Earth is a magnet: It exerts magnetic forces and is surrounded by a magnetic field that is strongest near the North and South magnetic poles Geographic North Pole Magnetic South Pole Magnetic North Pole Geographic South Pole

  16. Sometimes, the Earth’s magnetic poles flip. This happens every half-million years or so. Magnetic North Pole Magnetic South Pole

  17. We use the Earth’s magnetic field to find direction. The needle of a compass always points toward the magnetic south pole. We call this direction “North” (remember, opposites attract)

  18. The sun has a magnetic field, too. It extends far above the sun’s surface. Other planets in the solar system also have these magnetic fields

  19. The solar wind is constantly bombarding the Earth’s magnetic field. Sometimes these charged particles penetrate that field. These particles are found in two large regions known as the Van Allen Belts.

  20. The Earth’s magnetic field extends far into space. It is called the “magnetosphere.” When the magnetic particles from the sun, called “solar wind”, strike this magnetosphere, we see a phenomenon called…

  23. ELECTRICITY & MAGNETISM

  24. ELECTROMAGNET A magnet with a field produced by an electric current Electromagnetism a moving charge (electricity) produces a magnetic field • More coils of wire= more current = stronger magnet • Bigger battery = stronger magnet

  25. INDUCTION Causes a response Example of induction:Making something magnetic • Induction by proximity:putting a magnet on an iron nail induces the nail to become magnetic • Electromagnetic Induction:a moving charge (electricity) through coils around a nail induces the nail to become magnetic

  26. ELECTRICITY  MAGNETISM Electric currents cause magnetism • How can you tell?Compass needle moves when near electrical current - creating an magnetic field

  27. MAGNETISM  ELECTRICITY Moving magnet can generate electricity • How can you tell? Electromagnetic induction moving a magnet in and out of a coiled wire created an electrical current without a battery

  28. WATCH: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HQdLFEiVeCA

  29. Create a Venn Diagram comparing and contrasting magnetism and electricity.

  30. SUMMARY OF E & M E = Electricity and M = Magnetism are related!! • Both can cause each other • Likes repel • Opposites attract ELECTRICITY • Can be + or - • Can flow (current) • Can jump (static) MAGNETISM • Can NOT have only 1 pole • Can be Normal (N) or Reversed (S) pole • Can move through field
