permanent & induced magnets

Cards (15)

  • What should you be able to describe by the end of the video on magnetic forces?
    The forces produced when magnets are brought together
  • What is the difference between permanent and induced magnets?
    A permanent magnet produces its own magnetic field, while an induced magnet becomes a magnet in a magnetic field
  • What are the two ends of a bar magnet called?
    North Pole and South Pole
  • Where are the magnetic forces strongest on a magnet?
    At the poles of a magnet
  • What happens when two like poles of magnets are brought close together?
    They repel each other
  • What occurs when unlike poles of magnets are brought together?
    They attract each other
  • What type of forces are the attraction and repulsion between two magnetic poles?
    Non-contact forces
  • What does a permanent magnet produce?
    Its own magnetic field
  • What happens when a permanent magnet is brought close to another permanent magnet?
    They can attract or repel each other depending on the direction
  • What is an induced magnet?
    An object that becomes a magnet when placed in a magnetic field
  • What happens to objects placed in a magnetic field created by a permanent magnet?
    They can become induced magnets
  • What is the key fact about induced magnetism?
    It always causes a force of attraction
  • What happens to induced magnets when the permanent magnet is removed?
    They lose most or all of their magnetism quickly
  • What are the key concepts related to permanent and induced magnets?
    • Permanent magnets produce their own magnetic field.
    • Induced magnets become magnets in a magnetic field.
    • Induced magnetism always causes attraction.
    • Induced magnets lose magnetism when the magnetic field is removed.
  • What are the interactions between magnetic poles?
    • Like poles repel each other.
    • Unlike poles attract each other.
    • Both interactions are examples of non-contact forces.
