Under some conditions, sure. Impact and intense heat for instance can render a magnet weaker.

What kind of magnet is strong and will not lose its magnetism unless damaged?

Something called a permanent magnet


What happens when you touch a piece of iron to a permanent magnet?

When you touch a piece of iron to a permanent magnet, the iron can become magnetized temporarily because it can align its domains with the magnetic field. However, once the iron is removed from the magnet, it will lose its magnetism over time. The iron itself does not retain a permanent magnetism like the original magnet.


What is the difference between a permanent magnet and a temporary magnet?

Temporary magnet: good example is an electromagnet. It maintains magnetic attraction only so long as an electric current surrounds it. Permanent magnet: most common. Example: bar magnet. Will maintain magnetic properties for quite a while, although they can be eventually demagnetized.


Is iron a permanent magnet?

No, iron is not a permanent magnet. It can be magnetized in the presence of a magnetic field but will lose its magnetism once the external magnetic field is removed. Permanent magnets, on the other hand, retain their magnetism without the need for an external magnetic field.


How long does it take for a magnet to lose its magnetism?

The time it takes for a magnet to lose its magnetism can vary depending on factors like the type of magnet and how it is used. In general, permanent magnets can retain their magnetism for many years or even decades if they are not subjected to extreme conditions. However, some magnets may gradually lose their magnetism over time due to factors like exposure to high temperatures or physical damage.


Permanent and temporary magnets?

A temporary magnet is something that has been magnetized that won't stay a magnet for long, such as a paperclip that you have rubbed with a magnet. A Permanent magnet is usually a Lodestone that is found naturally or is manufactured by a company. Permanent magnets are always magnetic.


A magnet made of a material that keeps its magnetism is called?

Permanet Magnet


Does putting a magnet in the water for 60 minutes make the magnet lose its magnetism?

No it wont but if the water is hot then it will lose its magnetism


How is a permanet magnet destroyed?

Physical damage, exposure to extreme heat, or exposure to strong magnetic fields can cause a permanent magnet to lose its magnetism. Once a permanent magnet is demagnetized, it is very difficult to restore its original magnetic properties.


Is the magnet in a compass a permanent or electromagnet?

The magnet in a compass is a permanent magnet. It retains its magnetism without the need for an external electrical current.


How does a permanent magnet loses its magnetism?

It can lose it by being heated, being struck or being exposed to a rapidly changing magnetic field.
