question: What force does a magnet produce? answer: Magnetic force paragraph: Magnets are able to cause a change. They are able to make some other objects move. They do this by creating a force. This force is called a magnetic force. There are different types of forces. Some forces require objects to touch. For example, you push a book across a table. You are touching the book as it moves. Think back on the levitating train. It wasnt touching the track. How could it move? Magnets too can produce change. They can produce motion just like you do. Unlike you, magnets do not need to touch the other object. Thats right, there is a force without making contact. A magnetic force does not require objects to touch. A magnet can push or pull certain items without ever touching them. Thats how the maglev train works.
