The true answers that best describe magnetic force are:
- Magnetic force is generated by moving electrical charges or aligned atoms.
- Magnetic force can act at a distance to attract objects to each other.
To clarify:
- Magnetic force is indeed generated by moving electric charges (such as in a current-carrying wire) or by certain arrangements of atoms (as in magnets).
- It can act at a distance, meaning that magnetic forces can attract or repel objects without direct contact.
- However, it is not accurate to classify magnetic force as a contact force, as it does not require physical touch to exert its influence.
