Concept explainers

Bar Magnet

In physics, magnetism is a phenomenon exhibited by a magnetic substance that exerts either attractive or repulsive force. A bar magnet is either a rectangular or round and hollow fit comprised of ferromagnetic materials and has a fanciful attractive field surrounded by it.
