Answer:
Static electricity!
Apart from the magnetic substances commonly known (like iron, steel or nickel) all the other materials which has a static charge (positive or negative) attracts the materials which has the opposite charge.
The static electricity theory can be defined as--> If two objects have different charges, they attract, or pull towards each other. If two objects have the same charge, they repel, or push away from each other.
Example: The plastic scale rubbed on wool attracts small pieces of paper!
This is the theory which irritates a practical requirement!!
As the force of attraction is practically very weak and may be you will not get your purpose served by charging the object statically.
Let me know the purpose may be there is a useful option that i can suggest!
Why is it under the chemistry section?!?!?!
It's in the chemistry section because the trait of magnetism is tied to the structure of the atom, and chemistry is all about atoms and compounds.
