  1. Forces & Interactions Magnets and Magnetism

  2. Magnetic materials Which of the metals below aremagneticmetals? gold (Au) cobalt (Co) iron (Fe) nickel (Ni) copper (Cu) zinc (Zn) aluminium (Al) magnesium (Mg) silver (Ag)

  3. Magnetic materials N S Ni Co Au Fe Cu Mg Zn Al Ag A magnetic material is attracted to a magnet. Only iron (Fe), nickel (Ni) and cobalt (Co) are magnetic.

  4. What is a magnetic field? The region around a magnet where it has a magnetic effect is called itsmagnetic field. When a magnetic material is placed in a magnetic field it will experience a force. N S The iron filings feel the effect of the magnetic field and show the direction of the forces in this region.

  5. Shape of a magnetic field What is the shape and direction of the lines of force in the magnetic field around a bar magnet? strongest field at poles strongest field at poles S N weakest field further away from poles Where is the magnetic field strongest?

  6. Viewing magnetic fields: N poles together N S S N Bring the north poles of two bar magnets together. What happens to the magnets? Next, bring the two north poles as close to each other as possible and place a piece of paper on top of the magnets. Carefully scatter iron filings onto the paper. Draw the pattern created by the iron filings.

  7. Magnetic field pattern: N poles together What do you notice about the pattern of the lines of force in the region between the two north poles? N S N S

  8. Viewing magnetic fields: N and S poles together N S Bring the north and south poles of two bar magnets together. What happens to the magnets? N S Next, put the north and south poles close to each other, without letting them touch, and place a piece of paper on top. Carefully scatter iron filings onto the paper. Draw the pattern created by the iron filings.

  9. Magnetic field pattern: N and S poles together What do you notice about the pattern of the lines of force in the region between the north and south poles? N N S S How does this pattern compare with the pattern between the two north poles?

  10. Magnetic fields – summary 1.When two like poles (e.g. two north poles or two south poles) are put together, they repel each other. 2.When two unlike poles (e.g. a north and a south pole) are put together, they attracteach other. 3.Scattering iron filings around a bar magnet makes it possible to see the lines of force of the magnetic field.

  11. Making a magnet A magnet can be made by magnetizing a material which is attracted to a magnet, e.g. a paper clip. There are three methods that can be used to make a magnet: • Stroke a magnet along the paperclip from one end to the other and then starting from the same place, repeat the movement. The more times this is done, the more magnetic the clip becomes. • Hold a nail in a magnetic field and hit it with a hammer. • Put a magnetic material in a strong magnetic field.
