• The 2 regions where the magnetic forces are the strongest in a
magnet are called the poles of the magnet
• All magnets obey the law of magnetism which states that
o Like poles repel
o Unlike poles attract one another
Magnetic and non
magnetic materials
The magnetic field forms concentric circles around the wire. The circles
are closer together near the wire than when further away from the wire
The direction of field can be determined by using the right hand grip rule
