• Testing of a magnet
• Induced magnetism
• Theory of magnetism
• Methods of magnetisation & demagnetisation
• Plotting / Drawing of magnetic field lines
2. Testing of Magnet

(or repulsion occurs) (or attraction occurs)
Soft Iron Rod Attraction occurs Attraction occurs
(magnetic material)
Wooden Rod Nothing happens Nothing happens
3. Testing of magnet
Thus
• If attraction occurs for both ends of the
material, then it must be a soft iron (or any
magnetic material)
• If repulsion occurs for one side of its end,
then it must be a magnet.
• Only repulsion between a specimen and a
magnet allows us to conclude that the
specimen is a magnet
4. Induced Magnetism
• When a piece of unmagnetised magnetic material
(iron or steel) touches or is brought near to a
permanent magnet, it is attracted and becomes a
magnet itself. The material is said to have
magnetism induced into it.
• Materials that has magnetism induced into it are
called induced magnet.
• The process by which the unmagnetised magnetic
materials become magnets is called magnetisation.
6. Induced Magnetism
Place the North pole
of a bar magnet near
the two ends of the
iron nails.
The iron nails
experienced a greater
repulsion.
7. Induced Magnetism
Temporary. They lose their
magnetism once the permanent
magnet is drawn away from it.
8. Background
knowledge
Theory of Magnetism
• In an unmagnetized state, the domains
all point in different directions.
• Their magnetic effects cancel each other.
9. Background
knowledge
Theory of Magnetism
• All the domains of a fully magnetized
material point in the same direction.
11. Method of magnetization
• The process of magnetization
converts a piece of steel into a
permanent magnet.
• Note: Methods of magnetisation
produces permanent magnet, unlike
induced magnets. Thus, steel must be
used for all magnetisation and not iron
12. Method of magnetization
• Magnetization by stroking
Single stroke method
Double touch method
• Magnetization using an electric current.

removed from the
solenoid.
16. Ways of increasing the Magnetism
• 1) Increase the current (ie Use a stronger
battery)
• 2) Increase the number of coils / turns in the
solenoid
17. Methods of Demagnetization
• The methods of demagnetisation removes all
magnetism from a permanent magnet.
– Heating
– Hammering (east-west direction)
– Using an A.C current.
• Note:
We only demagnetised permanent magnets.
So all specimen described here are either
permanent bar magnets or magnetised steel
and not iron
18. Heat magnet to red-hot.
Then cool.
As in heating, the molecules are set to vibration,
causing the magnetic alignment to be lost.
19. Hammer magnet
vigorously.
By heating, the molecules vibrate vigorously
thus causing the magnetic alignment to be lost.
This is a very quick way to remove magnetism
20. solenoid
• Place a magnet or
magnetized steel inside a
12 V
a.c.
solenoid connected to an
alternating current (a.c)
• Turn on the current and slowly remove the
magnet 2 to 3 metres away from the solenoid.
21. Magnetic Field
Magnetic field lines were introduced
by Michael Faraday (1791 – 1867)
who named them lines of force.
22. Magnetic Field
It is a region around a magnet where
other magnetic objects experience a
magnetic force.
24. Experiment: To plot the field lines of a
magnetic field
Procedure:
1. Place the bar magnet
at the centre of the piece
of paper so that its
N‑ pole faces North and
its S‑ pole faces South.
25. Experiment: To plot the field lines of a
magnetic field
2. Starting near one pole
of the magnet, the positions
of the ends, N and S, of the
compass needle are
marked by pencil dots X
and Y. The compass is
then moved until one end is
exactly over Y and the new
position of the other end is
marked with a third dot.
26. Experiment: To plot the field lines of a
magnetic field
3. Repeat the process of
marking the dots. Join
the series of dots and
this will give the plot of
the field lines of the
magnetic field.
27. Experiment: To plot the field lines of a
magnetic field
Precautions:
- Check that the
plotting compass is in
good working order.
- Ensure that there is no
strong magnetic field
(other than the Earth's
magnetic field) around
the plotting compass.

pattern.
29. Magnetic Field Lines
1) Outside the magnet, the lines start from
the N pole and end at the S pole.
2) The lines can never cross each other.
3) The lines are closer to each other in a
stronger magnetic field.
33. How would the magnetic field pattern
differ if there are two magnets with
like poles facing each other?
34. X is known as the neutral point.
No magnetic field lines at X.
35. Neutral point:
It is the region between two magnets
where there are no magnetic field lines.
lines
This is because the field due to one
magnet cancels out that due to the other.
X is known as the neutral point.
No magnetic field lines at X.

To explain the principles of magnetism
How do we see the field? How can we plot the magnetic field lines? In the last lesson, you have learned about the use of compass as a means of telling direction. One can interpret these lines as indicating the direction that a compass needle will point if placed at that position.

Are there finite nos of magnetic lines? Would the pattern differ when another magnet is brought near? Is the pattern identical for all magnets? No, depending on the strength of the magnet but the general pattern would be the same. What assumption(s) has/have been made? Ignore earth’s magnetic field.
