Amazing fact
o Can we see magnetism?
o Can we see what magnetism does?
o Can magnetics attaract things? What kind of things?

oAsking Questions
o How do we use magnets in our lives?
The connection between electricity and
magnetism.
Electricity can make very strong magnets
Electricity makes electromagnets to attract or repel
Things that use eletromagnetic
Motors use electricity to make magnets that
spin around .
How to make electromagnetism?
When electricity passes through the wire that winded
up around the iron rod, the electromagnetic field
occurs.
Things that magnetic force attract and
repel.
Magnetic Poles
Magnets have magnetic
poles, called north pole
and south pole.

The red end is the north

pole and the blue end is
the south pole.
Attract
Unlike poles pull
towards each other.

We call this attraction.

Repel
These magnets push
away from each other.

We call this repulsion.

Attraction and Repulsion

Attraction and repulsion are magnetic forces.

Magnets have different Strengths.
Magnets have different
sizes and shapes.

Some magnets are

stronger than others.
Which metals are magnetic?
Silver, Gold, and
Platinum are metals
and they are very
expensive.
Alloy
A mixture of Steel is an alloy made
mainly from iron. We use
metal is called an steel to make machines,
alloy. steel pipes and bridges.
