: When two South [[Poles]] are placed next to each other two '''magnets''' will [[repel]] each other.
: When the North [[Poles|Pole]] of one '''magnet''' is placed next to the South [[Poles|Pole]] of another '''magnet''' they [[attract]] each other.
: The [[Earth]] is a [[magnet]] as evidenced by a [[Compass|magnetic compass]] lining up North to South everywhere on [[Earth]].
: All [[magnet]]s have a [[Magnetic Field|magnetic field]] around them which influences other [[Magnetic Material|magnetic materials]].
: A [[magnet]] is made of several small [[Magnetic Domain|magnetic domains]] which are regions in the [[magnet]] which act as smaller [[magnet]]s.

| style="height:20px; width:200px; text-align:center;" |When the [[Magnetic Domain|magnetic domains]] are not aligned there is no external [[Magnetic Field|magnetic field]] because the effect of the [[Magnetic Domain|magnetic domains]] cancels out.
