How to play
Click on the magnetic needle till it correctly aligns with the direction of magnetic lines of force around a simple bar magnet. In the next level put your skills to the test by repelling tiny magnets coming toward you.
Discover how to identify the North and South poles of an electromagnet. Then in another exciting challenge, move and magnetize your electromagnet to collect coins. Finally, learn how an electric bell works and see how electromagnetism is used in this simple everyday device.
