Words Meaning Example
Magnet An object that attracts certain materials like iron, due to its magnetic field. The magnet picked up the metal nails from the floor.
Magnetic Field An area surrounding a magnet where its magnetic force is active. Iron filings align themselves along the magnetic field of the magnet.
Pole The ends of a magnet where its magnetic force is strongest (North and South). The North Pole of a magnet repels the North Pole of another magnet.
Attract To pull objects closer together due to magnetic forces. Opposite poles of magnets attract each other.
Repel To push objects apart due to magnetic forces. Like poles of magnets repel each other.
Ferromagnetic Materials that can be magnetized and are attracted to magnets. Iron and steel are examples of ferromagnetic materials.
Permanent Magnet A magnet that retains its magnetism over a long period of time. A refrigerator magnet is an example of a permanent magnet.
Electromagnet A temporary magnet created by passing an electric current through a coil of wire. An electromagnet is used in many electric devices, such as speakers.
Magnetic Force The force of attraction or repulsion between magnets or magnetic materials. The magnetic force between the two magnets was very strong.
Magnetic North The direction a compass points to, towards the Earth's North Pole. The compass needle always aligns with magnetic north.
Magnetic South The opposite direction to magnetic north, towards the Earth's South Pole. The compass points away from magnetic south.
Demagnetize To remove or reduce the magnetism of an object. The technician had to demagnetize the credit card strip.
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) A medical imaging technique that uses strong magnetic fields and radio waves to create detailed images of the body. The doctor recommended an MRI to diagnose the condition.
Magnetic Compass A navigational instrument that uses Earth's magnetic field to indicate direction. The sailors relied on a magnetic compass to navigate at sea.
Magnetic Levitation (Maglev) A transportation technology that uses magnetic fields to suspend and propel vehicles above a track. The high-speed train used magnetic levitation for a smooth ride.
Geomagnetic Storm A disturbance in Earth's magnetic field caused by solar activity. A geomagnetic storm can disrupt satellite communication.
Magnetic Therapy An alternative medical practice that uses magnets to treat various ailments. Some people use magnetic therapy for pain relief.
Magnetic Lock A locking device that uses magnets to secure doors or gates. The magnetic lock automatically releases when the power is cut.
Magnetic Stripe A strip of magnetic material on cards used for data storage or identification. Credit cards have a magnetic stripe for transactions.
Magnetic Field Lines Imaginary lines used to represent the direction of a magnetic field. Magnetic field lines help visualize the field's strength and direction.
