History of Magnetism
4
History The lodestone, which contains iron ore, was found more than 2000 years ago in the region of Magnesia in Greece
5
History The earliest Chinese literature reference to magnetism lies in the 4th century BC writings Guiguzi (鬼谷子): "The lodestone attracts iron”
6
History Zheng He used the Chinese compass as a navigational aid in his voyage between 1405 and 1433
7
History In the 18th century, the French physicist Charles Coulomb studied the force between lodestones
8
History In 1820 Danish physicist and chemist who discovered that electric currents create magnetic fields

Historical Timeline Project
We will dig deeper into important historical contributions, by building a large-scale creative timeline along the back wall of our classroom.
10
Magnetic Poles
11
Magnetic Poles Magnets attract and repel without touching
The interaction depends on the distance Magnetic poles produce magnetic forces
12
Magnetic Poles Magnet can act as a compass
The end that points northward is called north pole, and the end that points south is call the south pole
13
Magnetic Poles All magnets have north and south poles
They can never be separated from each other If you break the magnet in half, what will happen?
14
Magnetic Poles Each half will become a complete magnet
Unlike electric charge, you cannot have north or south pole alone
15
Like poles repel; opposite poles attract
Magnetic Poles Like poles repel; opposite poles attract
16
Magnetic Fields
17
Magnetic Fields The space around the magnet is filled with a magnetic field
18
Magnetic Fields The magnetic field lines spread from the north pole to the south pole Where the lines are closer (at the poles), the field strength is stronger
19
Magnetic Fields The magnetic field unit: Units: tesla (T) or gauss (G)
1 tesla = 10,000 gauss
20
Magnetic Fields What will happen If we place a compass in the field?
21
Magnetic Fields A magnet or small compass in the field will line up with the field
22
Magnetic Fields Electric charge is surrounded by an electric field
The same charge is surrounded by a magnetic field if it is moving Which types of electron motion exist in magnetic materials?
23
Magnetic Fields Electrons are in constant motion about atomic nuclei
This moving charge constitutes a tiny current and produces a magnetic field
24
Magnetic Fields Electrons spinning about their own axes constitute a charge in motion and thus creates another magnetic field Every spinning electron is a tiny magnet
25
Magnetic Fields Electrons spinning in the same direction makes up a stronger magnet Spinning in opposite directions cancels out The field due to spinning is larger than the one due to orbital motion
26
Magnetic Fields For ferromagnetic elements: iron, nickel, and cobalt, the fields do not cancel one another entirely Each iron atom is a tiny magnet
27
Magnetic Domain
28
Magnetic Domain Interactions among iron atoms cause large clusters of them to line up with one another These cluster of aligned atoms are called magnetic domains
29
Magnetic Domain There are many magnetic domains in a crystal iron
The difference between a piece of ordinary iron and an iron magnet is the alignment of domains
30
Magnetic Domain Iron in a magnetic field:
A growth in the size of the domains that is oriented in the direction of the magnetic field A rotation of domains as they are brought into alignment
31
Magnetic Domain Permanent magnets:
Place pieces of iron or certain iron alloys in strong magnetic fields Stroke a piece of iron with a magnet
