Class Practice 1:
There are three metals X, Y and Z. From the following,
determine which one is a magnet, a piece of iron, or a piece
of aluminium.
(i) X is attracted by a magnet no matter which pole of the
magnet is facing it.
(ii) Y is attracted or repelled by a magnet depending on the
pole of the magnet.
(iii) A magnet cannot attract or repel Z at all.

Discussion 1: (Cont)
In a magnetic chess game, tiny magnets inside the
chess pieces cause them to stick on the metal chess
board. The two pieces of the window cleaner are
made of magnets. Therefore, moving the piece inside
the window can easily move the piece outside and
clean the outside of the glass window in the process.

How can the dumbbell-shaped object be
held in mid-air without any supporting force
as shown? What is the trick?
We know that inside the
dumbbell-shaped object,
there is a cylindrical magnet.
Ans is another magnet installed inside the
There
wer
base. Two magnets inside the dumbbell-shaped
object and the base are of like poles facing
each other. Therefore, it would be held in mid-
air due to the repulsion between the like poles.
