Magnetism
Contributed by: Skelton
  • 1. Magnetism is a fundamental force of nature that manifests through the movement of charged particles. Objects that exhibit magnetic properties are able to attract or repel other objects. This phenomenon is due to the alignment of the microscopic magnetic domains within the material. Magnets have two poles - North and South - and opposite poles attract while like poles repel. Magnetism plays a crucial role in many technologies such as electric motors, generators, and magnetic storage devices. Understanding the principles of magnetism is essential in various fields including physics, engineering, and materials science.
