7. The discovery of magnets
In Magnesia in Ancient Greece, there lived a shepherd named Magnus One day, he was looking after his sheep in the hills.

8. The discovery of magnets
All of a sudden, he felt a mysterious force pulling his iron staff from his hand. Even the iron nails on his sandals were being pulled out.

9. The discovery of magnets
To his great surprise, he discovered that it was a huge, black rock next to him that was pulling his staff and the nails.

10. The discovery of magnets
Soon, news spread across the country about the strange rock (now called lodestone) that had the power to pull things to it.

11. The discovery of magnets
The Greeks later found other similar black rocks which had this power. These rocks were named ‘magnets’, after either Magnesia or Magnus himself.

12. Magnets Today
Magnets are one of the most important forces in our world
There is a magnet or an electromagnet inside many things

13. Magnets Today Computers store data in magnetic disks and CDs.
Electromagnets are used to lift heavy objects

14. Magnets Today Maglev trains ‘float’ on top of tracks
Doctors can see the inside of our bodies thanks to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)

15. Magnets Today
The Earth has a magnetic field which we can use for navigation

16. What is magnetism?
Magnetism: an invisible force that pushes or pulls magnetic material.
Which materials are magnetic?

17. Magnetic Materials
Materials that are ATTRACTED TO A MAGNET, but do not attract or repel each other.
steel spoon and knife
iron nails

18. Are all metals magnetic?
cobalt (Co)
gold (Au)
iron (Fe)
nickel (Ni)
copper (Cu)
zinc (Zn)
magnesium (Mg)
aluminium (Al)
silver (Ag)

19. If you said NO you are CORRECT
cobalt (Co)
nickel (Ni)
Only iron (Fe), nickel (Ni) and cobalt (Co) are magnetic.
iron (Fe)
zinc (Zn)
magnesium (Mg)
gold (Au)
aluminium (Al)
silver (Ag)

20. Non-magnetic Materials
Materials that are not attracted to a magnet.
…metals such as gold, aluminium, silver and copper.
copper container
Aluminium
jewelry
gold jewelry

21. Non-magnetic Materials
Non-metals such as plastic, wood, paper, glass and clay are non- magnetic materials.

22. Magnetic induction
When a magnetic material is close to a magnet, it becomes a magnet itself.
We say it has induced magnetism.

23. Soft Magnetism Pure iron is a soft magnetic material
It is easy to magnetize but loses its magnetism easily
before
after N S S N N S N
Not a magnet
Iron nail

24. Hard Magnetism Steel is a hard magnetic material
It is harder to magnetize, but keeps its magnetism (it is used to make magnets!)
before
after S N S N N S S N N
It’s a magnet!
Steel paper clip

25. Sum this up
You have 5 minutes to sum up induced magnetism, soft magnetism and hard magnetism. Use the key words below to help you.
Induced magnetism, north pole, south pole, magnet, pure iron, magnetize, steel, permanent magnet, soft & hard magnetism.

26. What else should we know about magnets?

27. A magnet has 2 poles bar magnet
Poles – part of the magnet with strongest magnetic force.
The poles are called North pole and South pole
bar magnet

28. If you bring 2 bar magnets close together… Two Opposite poles attract
Law of Magnets
If you bring 2 bar magnets close together… Two Opposite poles attract

29. If you bring 2 bar magnets close together… Two Like poles Repel
Law of Magnets
If you bring 2 bar magnets close together… Two Like poles Repel

30. If you cut a magnet in half, you get…
2 smaller magnets, each with 2 poles. If you cut a magnet into many pieces, each piece is a magnet with 2 poles.

31. Taking a closer look:
Materials are made of many tiny electrons. They are always spinning around.
Domain - A group of spinning electrons.
Each domain acts as a tiny magnet.
In non-magnetic materials, the domains are pointing in all directions.

32. Domains inside magnetic materials
In magnetic materials, the domains are pointing in one direction.
The domains (tiny magnets) are working together and make the entire object magnetic.

33. Domains inside magnetic materials
In magnetic materials, the domains are pointing in one direction.

34. Domains inside magnetic materials
Domains aligned
Magnetic
Domains random
Not magnetic

35. Magnets create magnetic fields
A magnetic field is the area around a magnet where there is a magnetic force
Magnetic force is invisible, so how can we draw the magnetic field lines?

36. Magnets create magnetic fields
If you put some iron filings around a magnet, you can see the magnetic field lines.
strongest field at poles
weakest field further away from poles

37. Magnets create magnetic fields
The direction of the magnetic force is from NORTH to SOUTH

38. Magnets create magnetic fields
Two like poles repel

39. Magnets create magnetic fields
Two opposite poles attract

40. The earth has a magnetic field
Earth’s core has molten iron and nickel which is always spinning
The spinning core acts like a magnet

41. Magnetic north pole and geographic north pole are not at the same place.
