: [[Magnetism]] is a [[force]] so it is [[Measure|measured]] in [[Newton]]s.
: [[Magnetism]] is a [[Non-contact Force|non-contact force]] because it can act without [[object]]s touching.
: [[Magnetism]] can be attractive when two opposite [[poles]] are near one another or repulsive when two 'like' [[poles]] are placed near one another.
: [[Magnet]]s produce a [[Magnetic Field|magnetic field]]. If [[Iron]],[[Cobalt]] or [[Nickel]] are in that [[Magnetic Field|magnetic field]] they will be [[attract|attracted]] to the [[magnet]].
