On these two areas of the magnet there is a North and South.
What are magnetic poles?
A material that slows down the movement of electrons in electricity.

What is weight?
When a magnet pushes away from another similar magnet.
What is repel or repulsion?
What is a generator?
A magnet causes a paperclip to move without touching the paperclip.
What is non-contact force?
What are the two things that affect how much gravity something has?
Mass and Distance
The area around a magnet that will have magnetism to it.
What is magnetic field?
A material that allows the movement of electrons in electricity.
When both teams in football hit each other. This is an example of forces opposing each other.
What is contact force?
There are three types of metal that can be magnetized.
What are Iron, Nickel, Cobalt?
