Rub the needle across a magnetic surface...always in the same direction, don't go back and forth. This will magnetise the needle. Then float the needle in a dish of water. And presto you have your own compass
magnetise
You need to rub the needle with a magnet or you can use coil around the needle and pass current to make it a electro magnet.
yes it does the current flows in a wire it creates a magnetic field around the wire.

The magnetic materials which can magnetise and de-magnetise easily are called "soft magnetic materials" example:-ferrites,iron-cobalt alloy. The magnetic materials which cannot magnetise and de-magnetise easily are called "hard magnetic materials" example:-aluminium(al),nickel-cobalt alloy.
magnetise
you really can't
Iron.
Heating should do it
stroke it one vay repeatedly against a magnet
hold a piece of iron or magnesium up to it and if it attracts it is magnetic
Electromagnets are only magnetised while the electrical current is switched on.

Sort of. Magnets become weaker with heat, but boiling water is not enough to completely demagnetize unless it was a very weak magnet to begin with. It will become weaker, but the only fool-proof way is to make it borderline molten, completely randomizing the domains.
