What shape magnet? Horseshoe magnet, bar magnet, cylindrical magnet? Try using Google Images to find images of the lines of force coming out of the poles of the type of magnet you are asking about. See if that helps...BernardRio said:
I think the answer depends on what the "body" is.BernardRio said:
The attractive force of a magnet is due to its magnetic field, which is created by the alignment of its electrons. When two magnets are brought close together, their magnetic fields interact and cause them to either attract or repel each other depending on their orientation.
The strength of a magnet's attractive force decreases as the distance between two magnets increases. This is because the magnetic field weakens with distance, making the force of attraction between the two magnets weaker.
Yes, a magnet's attractive force can be increased by either increasing its size or by using a stronger magnetic material. Additionally, the magnetic field strength can be increased by aligning the magnet's electrons in the same direction.
Yes, there are materials that are not affected by a magnet's attractive force, such as plastic, wood, and glass. These materials do not have magnetic properties and cannot be magnetized.
No, a magnet's attractive force cannot be turned off or on. It is an inherent property of the magnet and is always present as long as the magnet exists. However, the strength of the attractive force can be changed by altering the magnet's properties.
