Is it correct to say that all materials exhibit some form of magnetism?
I was reading on Wikipedia that there are different kinds of magnetism (Ferromagnetic, ferrimagnetic, Paramagnetic, Diamagnetic) and that all materials exhibit at least one of them.

HI,
So say you have a small ball hanging vertically below a positively charged plate. When the ball is released from rest with the string at a small angle to the vertical, it swings in periodic pendulum motion. If the ball is now positively charged, does the period increase, decrease or stay...

Hi All,
I understand that the the speed of electrons in a wire along with the coulomb attraction accounts for the attraction of two wires carrying current in the same direction and the repulsion of two wires carrying current in the opposite direction; however, I'm having trouble visualizing...
As you probably know, there is a formal proof of Gauss's Law for electric fields based on Coulomb's Law and the concept of solid angles. How can one prove Gauss's Law for magnetic fields? Is there a similar proof based on solid angles?
Can anyone say what magnetism is beyond that it is a field and a property of the electrical nature of atoms? That is why do magnets attract? How is it different from gravity?
Does gravity affect the way magnets interact with one another? Would the same magnet be stronger in a low gravitational field (just empty space) compared to let's say jupiter?
