Organise the vocabulary, quantities and relationships into a connected model.
This extension applies that lens specifically to Magnets and the Magnetic Force.
A magnet can pull certain materials towards it without touching them — this is the magnetic force.
- Magnetic materials (a magnet attracts them): iron, steel and nickel. A steel paperclip or a tin can will stick to a magnet.
- Non-magnetic materials (a magnet does not attract them): plastic, wood, paper, glass, and metals like copper and aluminium.
Every magnet has two ends called poles: a north pole (N) and a south pole (S). When you bring two magnets together:
- Unlike poles (N and S) attract — they pull together.
- Like poles (N and N, or S and S) repel — they push apart.
