  FORCESIn our universe,the way matter communicates with each other is through forces.The four fundamental forces include:Gravity ElectromagneticThe Strong ForceWeak Force
• 3.
  GravityThis force actsbetween all masses in the universe and acts between everything.Einstein discovered this force first through the famous story about the apple falling on his head.
• 4.
  ElectromagneticThis force actsbetween electrically charged particles. Electricity, magnetism, and light are all produced by this force.
• 5.
  The Strong ForceThisforce binds neutrons and protons together in the cores of atoms and is a short range force.
• 6.
  Weak ForceThis forceallows beta decay to happen which changes a neutron into a proton and electron. This allows for radiation to occur.

  MagnetismA physical phenomenonproduced by the motion of electric charge, resulting in attractive and repulsive forces between objects.

  Magnetic Field LinesMichaelFaraday called the lines you see “lines of force” but was changed to field lines. This helps describe the direction of the force on a magnet.

  ElectromagnetElectromagnets can bemade by wrapping a wire around a metal and then putting current through the wire.

  Magnetic MotorMagnetic motorscan be used to turn electrical energy into a rotation and is used nearly everywhere. When the electrons flow through the wire it attracts the magnets causing them to spin.

  Rediscovering MagnetismGravity isa force. It has an infinite range which means it occurs between all matter. It is only noticed when we think between two big objects.Magnetism is a force. Books say it does not have an infinite range. Just because we cannot see it between two objects does not mean there is no magnetism between all matter.

  Magnetism vs. GravityMagnetismcan make objects attract each other and repel while gravity is only seen as the attraction of two objects. Personally I think gravity is a part of magnetism.
