Solution

Magnetism:

  1. The force exerted by magnets is known as magnetism.
  2. The motion of electric charge can also cause magnetism,
  3. A magnet has two poles one is the south pole and the other one is the north pole.
  4. The basic principle of magnetism is that the, unlike (north-south) poles, attract and like (south-south, north-north) poles repel.
  5. The magnetic flux emits from the north pole and terminates on the south pole.

Hence, magnetism is due to motion of electric charge
