magnetic
a material or object that can exert a magnetic force on other magnetic materials or be influenced by a magnetic field
permanent magnet
a magnet that retains its magnetism over time and produces its own consistent magnetic field without the need for an external force or electricity
attraction
the movement of two objects towards each other due to magnetism between the opposite poles of magnets (north and south) or a magnetic material being drawn to a magnet
induced magnetism
