Download Magnetic Interaction

magnetic interaction
There is interaction between a particle and other bodies which depends on
the charge of the particle, its position and its velocity (and its spin). We
call this interaction a magnetic interaction. Moving charged particles in
the body cause the magnetic interaction.

Magnetic properties of matter
When a substance is placed in a (external) magnetic field, its
molecules acquire a magnetic moment related to the external
field. This creates an additional magnetic field (internal).
