Learning objectives:

• Find out the difference between a magnet and a


magnetic material.
• Learn about which materials are magnetic and
which are not.
Getting started

What type of magnets


are in the pictures?
Getting started

What do the ‘N’ and ‘S’


on the magnets show?
Getting started
Which of the following materials is
magnetic?
What are magnetic materials?

Magnetic materials are


materials that are
attracted to a magnet.
What are magnetic materials?

Fridge magnets stick to


a fridge because the
fridge is made from a
magnetic material.
What are magnetic materials?

Metal objects are


attracted to a magnet
but non- metals like
plastic and wood are
not attracted to a
magnet..
Which metals are magnetic?

Silver, gold and platinum


are not magnetic.
Which metals are magnetic?

Iron, steel, aluminum,


copper and chromium
are called alloy which is
made from a mixture of
metals.
Which metals are magnetic?

Steel is made mainly


from iron, and it is
stronger than iron.

We use steel to make


machines, steel pipes
and bridge.
Which metals are magnetic?
Chromium is mixed with
steel to make an alloy
called stainless steel
which does not rust.

It is used in many
objects such as knives,
skins and medical
instruments.
Which metals are magnetic?

Brass is an alloy of
copper and zinc.

We use brass to make


door handles and
ornaments.
What is the difference between a magnet
and a magnetic material?
A magnet is a material
that has an area around it
where magnetic force is
active.
In this are a magnet can
attract or repel other
magnets and it can attract
a magnetic material.
What is the difference between a magnet
and a magnetic material?
A magnetic material does
not have an area around it
where magnetic force is
active, like a magnet does.
A magnetic material
cannot attract other
magnetic material.
