Chapter # 2

Magnetism


CONCEPT

Most people are familiar with magnets primarily as toys, or as simple objects for keeping papers attached to a metal surface such as a refrigerator door. In fact the areas of application for magnetism are much broader, and range from security to health care to communication, transportation, and numerous other aspects of daily life. Closely related to electricity, magnetism results from specific forms of alignment on the part of electron charges in certain varieties of metal and alloy.
HOW IT WORKS
Magnetism, along with electricity, belongs to a larger phenomenon, electromagnetism, or the force generated by the passage of an electric current through matter. When two electric charges are at rest, it appears to the observer that the force between them is merely electric. If the charges are in motion, howeverand in this instance motion or rest is understood in relation to the observerthen it appears as though a different sort of force, known as magnetism, exists between them.
This is the second chapter of the book and in this chapter you will learn about the phenomenon of Magnetism and its usages.  After studying the chapter, you will become familiar about how a magnet works and what are the types of Magnet.  For reading the second chapter please Click
