What best explains why magnets can push or pull other magnets without touching them?
Magnets create a magnetic field around them which exerts a force on other magnets within that field. This force is generated by the alignment of the magnetic domains within the magnets, causing them to attract or repel each other without touching.
Which objects exert on each other without touching?
Objects can exert forces on each other without touching through fields, such as gravitational, electric, and magnetic fields. Gravity, for example, causes the Earth to exert a force on the Moon, keeping it in orbit. Similarly, magnets can attract or repel each other without being in physical contact.
Things that are like a magnet or vacuum that pull something in without touching what their pulling in?
Gravity is a force that pulls objects towards each other without direct contact, similar to a magnet or vacuum. Electromagnetic force can also attract or pull objects together without physical contact, such as with magnets. In the context of space, black holes have an intense gravitational pull that can draw in nearby objects and light without touching them.
Would magnets work in space to attract or repel objects without the presence of gravity?
Yes, magnets would still work in space to attract or repel objects even without the presence of gravity. Magnets create a magnetic field that can interact with other magnetic materials regardless of the presence of gravity.
What objects are similar because they are both areas where forces can act without objects touching?
Two examples of objects that are similar in that forces can act without objects touching are magnets and electric fields. In both cases, forces can act at a distance without direct contact between the objects.
