Can Electricity can be used to make a temporary magnet.?

yes it can.


How do you make temporary magnets?

There are basically two ways to make temporary magnets. They arethe stroke method and the electrical method.The Stroke Method:Take a piece of metal like iron and stroke the magnet across it in a certaindirection I.e. in a straight line. Keep stroking the magnet across the iron piecein the same direction for a few more times. The piece will be slightly magnetized.The Electrical Method:Wrap an iron bar with a coil, a conducting wire of copper, and connect the ends of the wire to the terminals of a battery. Electricity will pass through the bar which will result in the formation of an electromagnet.


How can you make a magnet less strong?

magnetism is the force of attraction which exists between two bodies which are not in contact.It is this force that pulls a nail,office pins or paperclip towards a magnet.


How is a electromagnet used to make a doorbell?

As soon as the electromagnet gets activated it would pull the hammer towards the metal to produce the sound and at the same time the electrical circuit will be broken and so the electromagnet would stop attracting the hammer and so hammer goes back and again the circuit is completed. So the cycle starts newly. Thus the electromagnet switches off and switches on the circuit successively and also makes the hammer to hit the bell.The pushing of the doorbell closes an electric circuit. Then electric current flows through an electromagnet, and the doorbell rings.

Of a ferromagnet an electromagnet a temporary magnet or a permanent magnet which is easy to create but loses its magnetism easily?

The temporary magnet becomes a magnet in a strong magnetic field, but its magnetic properties will disappear when that field is taken away. The ferromagnet and the permanent magnet are essentially the same thing. The electromagnet isn't that easy to make compared to the temporary magnet. Let's conduct an esperiment. If we take a bar magnet and pick up a paperclip with it, we can use the paperclip on the end of the magnet to pick up another paperclip. The second paperclip we are picking up only needs to touch the first paperclip; it does not have to touch the magnet itself. When the magnet is taken away, the paperclips no longer exhibit magnetic properties. They were acting as temporary magnets, and the simple and easy removal of the magnet cause them to lose their magnetism.


What are three ways to destroy the magnetism of a magnet?

I suggest that you incinerate it.


How do you make a temporary magnet without electricity?

you can wrap a wire around a metal object and attach both ends of the wire to the battery and you metal will be magnetisedfor an amount of time.


What is a simple way to make things magnatised?

hit it with a hammer, stroke it with a magnet or flow an electric current through or closely around it!


Why droping a magnet is bad?

If you drop a magnet, you can potentially make it lose some of its magnetism. Striking it with a hammer, exposing it to electric charges, and extreme temperature changes (rapid temperature change from freezing to boiling for example) can affect its magnetism.

How to make a temporary magnet?

First, you get a long wire (12 inches). Then, you get a nail and wrap the wire around the nail, but leave at least 1 inch of wire on each side. The use the ends of the wire and put it on the big magnet and it will pick up magnetic things.
