My physics class did an online lab thing where a charged plastic rod is brought near a magnetic and non-magnetic conduction rod about the same size. Both ends of the magnet and the non-magnetic rod were attracted to the charged rod. I am a little confused and what forces/ different forces are causing this

Question: If the charged rod is attracted to the magnetic and the non-magnetic rod in the same way, can you conclude that there are any special interactions or forces between either of the magnetic poles and the rod?

Question: Is the interaction between magnets a different phenomenon from the electrostatic interaction of charges? Cite evidence for your answer (use question 2 to help). Keep in mind we are talking about electrostatics i.e. the charges are not moving, NOT electrodynamics where charges are in motion.

A negatively charged rod is brought near an isolated metal ball. which of the sketches best illustrates the arrangement of charges on the ball?

A rod is negatively charged by rubbing it with fur. It is brought near another rod of unknown composition and charge. There is a repulsive force on each.

A rod is negatively charged by rubbing it with fur. It is brought near another rod of unknown composition and charge. There is a repulsive force on each. (a) Is the first rod an insulator or a conductor? Explain. (b) What can you tell about the charge of the second rod?

LEAF ELECTROSCOPE PHYSICS (a.) A negatively charged balloon is brought close to the “knob” of an initially uncharged leaf electroscope, and the leaves are observed to move apart. What’s the sign of the dominant charge on the leaves? (b.) At the same time, what is the sign of the charge on the side of the “knob” closest to the balloon? (c.) At this point, without removing the balloon, you touch the knob (let us say, on the other side). Do...

When the flat open side of a charged coil was brought near the flat open side of the coil connected to a galvanometer (both coils parallel to each other), the galvanometer deflects very little. How do you know they need to be parallel and why is this the case? Where is north and south if the coil is acting like a bar magnet?
