[[File:MagnetHorseshoe.png|right|300px|thumb|A horseshoe magnet]]A '''magnet''' is a piece of [[equipment]] that can be used to do determine if an object a [[material]] is [[magnetic]].

: '''Magnets''' are attracted [[attract]]ed to some metals. Those metals are '''magnetic''' but they are not magnets [[magnet]]s themselves.: '''Magnets''' have two [[poles]]; North and South.: When two North [[Poles ]] are placed next to each other two '''magnets''' will [[repel ]] each other.: 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.
