Hello Guys!!

       I've been learning about the basic knowledge of magnetism for the past few weeks since my first blog post.

       Firstly, there are magnetic field around a magnet which indicates area of magnetic force. Permanent magnets have 2 different poles which is North pole and South pole. When 2 opposite poles are brought together they attract each other while 2 identical poles are brought together they repel.

       Ways to magnetize a material:
     i) Stroke a permanent magnet in one direction
    ii) Strike magnet in a north-west direction using a hammer repeatedly
   
       Ways to demagnetize a magnet:
     i) Heat the magnet
    ii) Strike magnet in a east-west direction using a hammer

I'll stop this blog now and will be posting another blog in the near future. Thank you for reading my blog!
