Magnets have the property of attracting small pieces of iron, nickel, and cobalt due to magnetism. The earliest known magnet was a piece of the mineral magnetite, also called lodestone. Magnets have north and south poles, with opposite poles attracting and like poles repelling one another. Artificial magnets can be created by making pieces of iron acquire magnetic properties, and magnets exert influence within their magnetic field.

magnetism
The substances which have the property of attracting small pieces of Fe,Co,Ni etc are called magnets, and this property of attraction is called magnetism.
It is a piece of Iodestone,which is a black iron oxide called magnetite. The word Iodestone means a leading stone.
magnetism
The regions of concentrated magetic strength inside the magnet just near its ends are called magnetic poles.The pole of a freely suspended magnet which points towards north is called north pole and that point towards south is called south pole.
magnetism
It states that like poles repel while unlike poles of magnets attract each other.
magnetism
1. Magnets attract small pieces of Fe,Ni,Co etc. 2. When freely suspended, they come to rest in north south direction. 3. Like magnetic poles repel each other and unlike magnetic poles attract each other. 4. The magnetic poles always exist in pairs.
Pieces of Fe and other magnetic materials which can be made to acquire the properties of natural magnets are called artificial magnets.
It is a region around the magnet with in which its influence can be experienced.
THANK YOU
