This ore was found in the district of Magnesia in Asia Minor in Greece. Hence, the ore was named ‘magnetite. Later, William Gilbert first suggested that earth behaves as a huge moge| which causes the alignment of compass needles, then oersted discovered that motiy charges are the sources of magnetic fields. So, the sci long before the 19th century. The phenomenon of attraction of small bits of iron, steel, cobalt, nickel, ete, tora the ore was called magnetism. Matters like (solid, liquid or gases) show magnetisn and hence are classified into different categories according to their magnetic properties. In this chapter, we shall learn about magnetism and magnetisation of matter followed by knowledge of magnet, magnetic dipole and their magnetic fies We will also discuss about the earth's magnetism, 1) Magnet ence of magnetism was kaom Property to attract some specific materials like iron towards it, The magnetic fel! * Invisible but is responsible for properties of a magnet, ‘Magnets are of two types (i) Natural magnets Gi) Artificial magnets Natural magnets are generally irregular in shay hand, artificial magnets may have desired sha shoe magnet, compass needle, pe and weaker in strength.

Magnetic field lines The magnetic field lines of a magnetic field are the imaginary lines which continuously represent the direction of that - Magnetic field. Properties of magnetic field lines () The magnetic field lines of a magnet form closed continuous loops. This property is unlike electric field Chapter 05 : Magnetism and matter (aa lines, which begin from positive charge and terminate at the negative charge or escape to infinity. (a) The tangent, at any point of a magnetic field line, represents, the directionof net magnetic field 'B' at the point. (ii) At any point tangent to the magnetic field line represents the direction of net magnetic field (B) at that point. (iv) The tangent at any point of a magnetic field line respect the directions of net magnetic field B at that point. (¥) The lazger the number of field lines crossing per unit area, the stronger is the magnitude of the magnetic field B.

A bar magnet, a compass needle, etc., are the examples of magnetic dipoles. 33) 132) OBJECTIVE PHYSICS Vol. 2 Pole strength Like electric charge, we have equivalent analogous in magnetism which is known as pole strength. Thus, pole strength can be defined as the strength of a magnetic pole to attract magnetic materials towards itself. It is a scalar quantity and its SI unit is ampere-metre (A-m). The strength of Nand S-pole of a magnet is conventionally represented by + m and ~ m, respectively. It depends on the nature of material and area of cross-section of the magnet. Strength of N and S-pole of a magnet is always equal and ‘opposite (+m and —m).
