Magnetic domain 1

2. A. Magnetism
Magnetism
force of attraction or repulsion between unlike or like poles
due to the arrangement of electrons
closely related to electricity

3. B. Magnetic Poles
Magnetic Poles- parts of the magnet where the magnetic effects are strongest
like poles repel
unlike poles attract
a broken magnet creates new poles

4. C. Magnetic Forces Magnetic force
The force of repulsion or attraction between the poles of magnets
When magnets are close to each other they will either pull together or push apart

5. D. Magnetic Field Magnetic Field
area around a magnet where magnetic forces act
field lines show direction of field (NS)

6. E. Magnetic Domain Magnetic Domain
groups of atoms with aligned magnetic poles
domain
in a magnetized object, domains are all aligned
