DiscussionsCategory: PhysicsWhat is the difference between gravity and magnetism?
Cliff ImasuenClassHall Instructor Staff asked 6 years ago

Of course I know they have to be different terms or concepts. I just want to know the actual difference, because to me, gravity seems like a kind of magnetic force. Is this correct or not?

I think gravity should be a form of magnetism and not the other way around. Gravity is a magnetic field in the earth that keeps everything in place.

Gravity is a force that acts between any two objects with mass. … Unlike gravity, which occurs between any objects, magnetismdepends on specific properties of objects.Magnetism can either pull the two objects together or push them apart, depending on which way the magnets point.
