Just Another Scribe

Yes, it's me the one and only... doing a late post, nothing new. ONLY 11 DAYS UNTIL EXAM guys. Today we officially started our unit on Magnetic Fields; we started off the class with introduction notes which are in the slide posted preview to the last slide before mine, haha hope everyone got that. Then, we were assigned to read pages 492 – 496 in the physics textbook and answer 10 questions which I’m positive no one finished, including me. But, here are the first six questions frome th Reviwing Concepts section on page 510 of the text book:

1. Magnetic attraction only occurs between a North and South Pole. Magnetic repulsion occurs between 2 North poles or 2 South poles.
2. A permanent magnet doesn’t lose its magnetism easily. A temporary magnet is only a magnet when it is under the influence /or attracted to a permanent magnet.
3. 3 most common magnetic elements: (alnico)
-Aluminum
-Nickel
-Cobalt



6. A broken magnet cannot have isolated poles because they always come in pairs.
And that will be in for my last scribe of grade 11 Physics
