Key Stage 3
Meaning
A permanent magnet is an object with its own magnetic field that remains there even when there are no other external magnetic fields.
About Permanent Magnets
- A bar magnet is a permanent magnet.
- Permanent magnets are used in a electrical motors.
Key Stage 4
Meaning
A permanent magnet is an object with its own magnetic field that remains there even when there are no other external magnetic fields.
About Permanent Magnets
- A bar magnet is a permanent magnet.
- Permanent magnets are used in a electrical motors.
- A magnet is made of several small magnetic domains which are regions in the magnet which act as smaller magnets. In a permanent magnet these magnetic domains are fixed in place and need energy to change their magnetic direction.
- A permanent magnet can only lose its magnetic field under certain conditions:
- When it is struck with a sudden force.
- When it is heated.
- When an extremely strong external magnetic field is applied.
When magnetic domains are aligned the object has its own magnetic field so it acts like a magnet. | When the magnetic domains are not aligned it does not have a magnetic field because the effect of the magnetic domains cancels out. |
