Aden Osborn · Answer 2

The answer is only some metals are attracted by magnets; these metals are called ferromagnetic.

Explanation:

The magnet is a body or device with significant magnetism, so that it attracts other magnets and ferromagnetic metals. A ferromagnetic material is one that can have ferromagnetism, which is a physical phenomenon in which magnetic ordering of all the magnetic moments of a sample occurs, in the same direction. Not all metals have ferromagnetism.
