4 Electricity and magnetism
4.1 Simple magnetism and magnetic fields
1 Describe the forces between magnetic poles and between magnets and magnetic materials, including
the use of the terms north pole (N pole), south pole (S pole), attraction and repulsion, magnetised and
unmagnetised
2 Describe induced magnetism
3 State the difference between magnetic and non-magnetic materials
4 State the differences between the properties of temporary magnets (made of soft iron) and the properties
of permanent magnets (made of steel)
5 Describe a magnetic field as a region in which a magnetic pole experiences a force
6 Describe the plotting of magnetic field lines with a compass or iron filings and the use of a compass to
determine the direction of the magnetic field
7 Draw the pattern and direction of the magnetic field lines around a bar magnet
8 State that the direction of the mag
