Magnetic attraction and magnetic repulsion

Magnetic attraction and magnetic repulsion are two basic concepts in magnetism.

Magnetic attraction refers to the force that draws two magnets towards each other. When two magnets are brought close to each other, the magnetic field lines of the two magnets interact and create a force that draws the magnets towards each other.

Magnetic repulsion refers to the force that pushes two magnets away from each other. When two magnets are brought close to each other with the same poles facing each other, the magnetic field lines of the two magnets interact and create a force that pushes the magnets away from each other.

These concepts are important in understanding the behavior of magnets and how they interact with each other, and they have practical applications in fields such as electromagnetism, electrical engineering, and physics.
