What's the difference between magnetism and retentivity?

Magnetism


Definition:

  • (n.) The science which treats of magnetic phenomena.
  • (n.) Power of attraction; power to excite the feelings and to gain the affections.

Retentivity


Definition:

  • (n.) The power of retaining; retentive force; as, the retentivity of a magnet.
