From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

magnets, a magnet is a material or object that produces a magnetic field.magnets have magnetic fields that attract items containing iron.some of the substances attracted to magnets include iron nickel and steel.magnets are used for a variety of purposes.to understand how magnets work, means figuring out the dynamics of a magnetic field.now think that space, is surrounded by a magnet.this space is occupied by a magnetic force and is called a magnetic field.if a magnet is placed within this field, it will act on the magnetic forces.a magnetic field is created as the result of moving charges.a good example of this electric current that flows through a wire.when this occurs, there are negativly charged,subatomic particles,called electrons, moving through the wire.as these charges move,a magnective field either attracts or repels certain metals, as well as other magnets.a magnet has 2 ends that are referred to as poles.one pole is called north and the other one is called south.to attract magnets to each other,you have to place opposite ends of 2 magnets near each other.placing like ends of 2 magnets near each other causes the opposite to occur, the magnets repel each other interestingly, the earth has a natural,magnetic field.
