Question

Describe at least two different objects that you think are magnetic. Why do you think these objects are magnetic?

Answer 1

Magnetic objects include;

1. Door of a refrigerator which is stainless.

2. Cabinet Latches.

3. Electric motors.

4. Audio speakers.

These objects are magnetic because they are ferromagnetic to mean they can be magnetized and they are metals and metals do attract magnet.

A good  example is nickel, iron and cobalt.

Examples of magnets include fridge magnets, MRI scanners which are used in hospitals and compass needles.

The like poles of a magnet repel and the unlike poles attract.

Answer 2

A stainless steel refrigerator door, the body parts of cars, and file cabinets are magnetic because they are made of metal and magnets stick to them.
