Magnetism

Grade 11

Objectives

Let's go

Students are expected to:

  • Define what is magnetism
  • Distinguish between a permanent magnet and a temporary magnet
  • Show accurately the movement of dipoles in a magnetic field

Take a look at this video

Take Look here

How is the iron magnetized?

What does it pick up?

Does it keep the magnetization forever? Explain how it is lost

Questions

Brainstorm

Think of the possiblities in the nature of the substance that will cause it to become magnetized

Activity

Permanent Magnets vs Temporary (induced) magnets

Notes

Dipoles

Questions

What direction are the dipoles pointing when not magnetized?

What direction do they point when magnetized?

How does the domains effect the magnetization of the material?

Exercise

Give the names of 3 materials that are magnetic and non magnetic

Exercise

Homework

  • Draw the magnetic dipoles before and after being magnetized
  • Explain what is magnetism
  • State why non magnetic materials are not attracted to magnets in terms of magnetic domains
