Magnetism is the force exerted by magnets when they attract or repel each other. Magnetism is caused by the motion of electric charges. Every substance is made up of tiny units called atoms. Each atom has electrons, particles that carry electric charges.
What is magnetism and examples?
Magnetism is the result of attraction, when two objects come together, or repulsion when two objects move apart. A magnet is an object that has properties of magnetism. For example, a magnet might attract another object. A magnetic field is an invisible area around a magnet where magnetism occurs.
