๐งฒ Magnetic Poles
N ๐ด โโ ๐ต S
Every magnet has a North (N) pole and a South (S) pole. Opposite poles ATTRACT โ they pull together. Like poles REPEL โ they push apart!
Earth itself is a giant magnet โ that is how compasses work!
๐ Magnetic vs Non-Magnetic
โก Electromagnetism
When electricity flows through a wire, it creates a magnetic field! This is called electromagnetism. Coiling the wire around a metal core makes the effect much stronger โ creating an ELECTROMAGNET.
