Magnetism Basics
Only Certain Types of Materials Exhibit Magnetism
N
S
Magnets can be made in a variety of shapes,
but all magnets have 2 poles
•Opposite poles attract
•Like poles repel
All magnets have lines of force extending from one pole
to the other in the 3 dimensional space around them

Magnetic Lines of Flux
Magnetic Field
Magnetic lines do not cross
each other.
The lines go from North
to South on the magnet.

What are the characteristics?
North and south poles
“di”-poles
Break the magnet in half and you will have two
separate magnets
3 dimensional field of attraction
Transfer magnetic properties

Where does it come from?
 Nature
 Man-made materials from:
Ceramic
Alnico (aluminum, nickel, &
cobalt)
Flexible rubber-like material
 Created using current
(electricity)

Safety Note
 Always be careful around electricity.
 Make sure an adult is present during experiments and
demonstrations using electricity.
 Use only low voltage for demonstrations (6 volts dc or
less)
 Take care to prevent shorts on batteries
 Never allow the positive and negative terminals to touch the
same metal object (short)
 Use plastic covers on batteries when not in use
 Never use electricity from a wall outlet in any of these
classroom demonstration. Use the batteries and
genecons provided.

Electricity Basics
Electricity is…..
•
•
•
•
The flow of electrons
The energy sent out by batteries and
generators (current electricity)
The shock you can get from rubbing your
feet on the carpet (static electricity)
A bolt of lightning! (static electricity)

All Matter is Made up of Atoms
MATTER
(water, diamond)
ELEMENTS
O
H
(oxygen, carbon)
H
ATOMS
(particles)

Atoms
What is an Atom?
The smallest component in all things
Made up of three smaller particles
Protons (+)
Neutrons (no charge)
Electrons (-)
Strive for stability
Charged atom = ion

Attraction
_ _
 Particles with opposite charges attract each
other.

----
Stable Atom
Positive Ion
Negative
Ion
 Stable atoms have equal protons and electron
 Stable atoms have no charge
 Free electrons will seek positively charged ions
to create stability

Electricity & Ben Franklin
Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790)
 1740’s – Proposed the notion
of positive and negative
charges maintain a balance
except when influenced by
some means.
 1752 – Famous kite
experiments identify lightning
as a form of electrical
discharge.
5/22/2017
23
Static Electricity
The imbalance of
positive and negative
charges
Example: a build up
of negative charges
in a storm cloud will
travel to the ground
in the form of
lightening

24
2nd Electricity Activity
“Balloons and Electrons”
5/22/2017
25
Static Electricity
 Start with a doorknob – no charge
 Walk along carpet: strip electrons from carpet that
collect in your body… You become negatively
charged
 Approach the doorknob and the positive charges
move toward you. Negative charges move away.
5/22/2017
26
Static Electricity
 When close enough, the electrons will jump toward the
positive doorknob and ZAP! You’ve been shocked by
static electricity.
5/22/2017
27
Static Electricity
 When close enough, the electrons will jump toward the
positive doorknob and ZAP! You’ve been shocked by
static electricity.
 Now you and the doorknob have the same charge.
5/22/2017
28
Current Electricity
Electric current is the movement of free
electrons from atom to atom
To start the free electrons moving an
electromotive force is needed.
 Generator
 Batteries
