The process by which a iron piece touching a permanent magnet behaves as a magnet as long as it maintains contact is called magnetic induction. not only does this work when the iron is physically touching the magnet but it works as long as the piece of iron remains under the influence of the magnet. A iron piece attracted to a magnet through a paper with out any physical contact will also behave as a magnet.
The soft iron and magnet will attract each other - the copper will not be attracted to either of the other two.
Suspend the magnet on a string at its CG, so it balances. The end that points north is its north pole.Alternative AnswerUse a compass. It will be attracted to the magnet's south pole.
However, if you bring a magnet near a piece of iron, such as a nail,and the paperclip. If the paperclip does not fall then the magnetic field has the iron nail. The result is a temporary magnet called an 'electromagnet'. The magnets either stick together or are suspended in midair
In a compass box we have a small magnetic needle to which an aluminum pointer is attached at right angle. Since it has a magnetic piece, it has to respond to other magnets. In some boxes we have the pointer small in size is itself a magnet pivoted freely.

Maybe someone picked up a piece of "magnesian" rock on an Aegean coast and noticed the piece of lodestone was peculiar. It attracted a piece of iron, and could change the properties of the iron when the iron was rubbed with the rock.
You can use a magnet to test if the piece of "gold" is magnetic or not. Gold is not magnetic, so if it is attracted then it is not real.
If you hold the end of one (A) to the center of the other (B), one of two things will happen. Either A will attract B, in which case A is the magnet, or it won't, which makes B the magnet. The secret lies in the fact that a magnet is just as attracted to the center of an iron piece, but a piece of unmagnetized iron will have no attraction to the center of a magnet-- they are magnetic off the ends, and the center is neutral.

Yes because if the piece of jewelery were real, then the magnet will work and the piece of jewelery will be attached to the magnet. So yes.
A nail can be magnetized by being hit with a magnet 50 or so times, alternately, if a nail or other piece of metal which is attracted to magnets (these metals are called ferromagnetic by scientists) is left near a strong magnet for a long period of time (a few days to a few years depending on how strong the magnet is) it will become magnetic.
Well I don;t know the correct terms,but I think the distance is sometimes affect cause if the magnet is small the force would be as strong as you think but if the magnet is large the magnetism would be stronger than the small magnet of pulling together.
