With iron filings, we can see the magnetic (pole/metal/field) of a magnet.
field
Two north poles will ______ each other.
repel
A north pole and a south pole will ______ each other.
attract
True or False? Magnetic force flows from the south pole to the north pole.
False! Magnetic force flows from the north pole to the south pole.
We can use these things in an experiment to see the pattern of a magnetic (field/like/repel).
We can use these things in an experiment to see the pattern of a magnetic field.
Magnetic force is strongest (in the centre/ at the ends) of a magnet.
Magnetic force is strongest at the ends of a magnet.
Iron filings are (magnetic/non-magnetic).
Iron filings are magnetic.
Magnets (do / do not) attract plastic.
Magnets do not attract plastic.
Wood is a (magnetic/non-magnetic) material.
Wood is a non-magnetic material.
Glass (is / is not) attracted to a magnet.
Glass is not attracted to a magnet.
True or False? The Earth has a magnetic field.
True! Because the Earth is a giant magnet, it has a magnetic field.
Is steel a magnetic or non-magnetic material?
Steel is a magnetic material, because it is made from iron.
These nails are made from iron. Will a magnet attract them?
Yes, a magnet will attract them because iron is a magnetic material.
Will these magnets attract or repel each other? Why?
They will attract each other, because the poles are opposite/unlike.
Will these magnets attract or repel each other? Why?
They will repel each other, because the poles are the same.
True or False? We can see the magnetic field with our eyes.
False. Magnetic fields are invisible, we cannot see them with our eyes.
