· Magnetic materials are attracted by magnets.
· Can you list the 5 magnetic materials?

(3 elements, 2 compounds)

Answer

3 elements
1. Fe (iron)
2. Co (cobalt)
3. Ni (nickel)

2 compounds
1. Steel (an alloy of iron)
2. Fe3O4 (magnetite (lodestone), one of the oxides of iron)

And the exceptions that prove the rule… ?
· Magnet moves water - diamagnetism


· Levitating frog...


· Ferrofluids…

· 6.2 recall that magnets repel and attract other magnets, and attract magnetic substances

Question

You have 3 bars that all look the exactly the same but they are made from:
1. a magnet
2. steel
3. aluminium

You are given a horseshoe magnet. How can you use this to tell which bar is which?

Answer
1. The bar magnet will be attracted to one pole of the horseshoe magnet and repelled by the other
2. The steel bar will be attracted to both poles of the horseshoe magnet
3. The aluminium bar will be attracted to neither pole of the horseshoe magnet

·         
5.19 use the relationship between the pressure and volume of a fixed mass of gas at constant temperature:

                 p1V1 = p2V2

p1 = Pressure at the beginning [kPa, bar or atm]
V1 = Volume at the beginning [m3or cm3]
p2 = Pressure at the end [kPa, bar or atm]
V2 = Volume at the end [m3 or cm3]

(Note: can use any units for V and p as long as they are the same at the beginning and end)
