PROPERTIES OF MAGNETS Learning Targets 8.1 I can recognize and explain what causes magnetic fields. 8.2 I can identify the shape and direction of the magnetic field around a bar magnet. Poles of Magnets If you suspend a bar magnet from its center by a piece of string, it will act as a compass. • The end that points northward is called the north-seeking pole. • The end that points southward is called the south-seeking pole. • More simply, these are called the north and south poles. • All magnets have both a north and a south pole. For a simple bar magnet the poles are located at the two ends. Properties of Magnets • Magnetic poles behave similarly to electric charges in some ways (they can attract and repel). • Unlike electric charges, a magnetic pole cannot be isolated—if you cut a magnet in half, the newly cut faces become new north and south poles. How does a magnet affect the space around it? “Fields” of Force • Both magnetic poles and electric charges have an ability to apply an invisible force on objects around them. • The space around an electric charge, in which an electric force can be exerted, is called an electric field. • The space around a magnet, in which a magnetic force is exerted, is filled with a magnetic field. • If we place another magnet or a small compass anywhere in the field, its poles will tend to line up with the magnetic field. The North pole of a compass needle is repelled by the North pole of a magnet, so the compass needle points towards the South pole of the magnet. So, we define the direction of a magnetic field to be pointing from North to South. https://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulation/magnet-and-compass WHITEBOARD CHALLENGE Draw the magnetic field lines around the following magnet.
