magnetic force(n = noun.phenomenon) magnetic attraction, magnetism - attraction for iron; associated with electric currents as well as magnets; characterized by fields of force;
is a kind of attraction, attractive force
has particulars: electromagnetism, antiferromagnetism, diamagnetism, ferromagnetism, paramagnetism

   The force caused by a magnetic field, a force which affects objects having a magnetic field and objects in which a magnetic field can be induced, such as ferromagnetic substances; a magnetic force manifests itself as an attraction for iron. It is associated with electric currents and moving charged paticles as well as permanent magnets. [WordNet 1.5]
