Seniors have been learning about magnets!
There are only a few things which are attracted to a magnet, iron and steel being the main ones. Very few other metals do, and no non-metals are attracted.
The main strength of a magnet is at the poles i.e. the North and South poles, which lie at each end of the magnet, or each side of a circular magnet. They carried out magnet investigations in class with Emer, take a look at their hard work! |
