What does a alnico magnet do?
I guess Al (aluminium), Ni (nickel) and Co (cobalt).
What metal is used in low melting alloys and magnets?
Several different metals can be used in magnets. Iron is perhaps the most common metal used in permanent magnets, but alloys such as Alnico (Aluminum, Nickel, and Cobalt) can also make very strong permanent magnets.
Why are pins made of brass?
Most are, but they can be made of other things. Most keys are made of a base of brass and then can be plated with nickel. Some key manufacturers use aluminum to make light weight keys. Some other common materials are nickel silver and steel.
How effective is brass a conductor of electricity?
It isn't. In terms of volume, silver is best, followed by copper, then aluminum. Aluminum is 2X better conductivity by weight than anything else. Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc, and their proportions can be varied to create different brasses. So if you wanted to make brass highly electrically conductive, you would add a lot of copper and silver to it. There is a common brass known as "electrical brass" that is commonly used for electrical conductor parts, and it's chief virtues are that it can be worked easily and is not expensive.
Can magnets pushing magnets make a wheel spin?
Yes!
What do copper and zinc together make?
An alloy of copper and zinc is called brass. Tin or aluminum can be added to brass to increase its resistance to corrosion. (see related link for types of brass)

What is a good tongue twister about magnets?
Milky magnets makes marrow more meaty :P

What materials are used to make a gun?
Depending on the guns- steel, brass, aluminum, copper, nickel, other metals, wood, and various plastics.

Is sterling silver the best heat conductor out of copper sterling silver brass aluminum and silver?
No, sterling silver is an alloy containing copper to make the metal stronger. Thermal (and electrical) conductivity is highest to lowest as follows: Silver, sterling silver, copper, aluminum, then brass. The latter is an alloy of copper and zinc.

From which other metals - apart from iron - do they make nails?
Some nails are made of copper or brass. Also, some nails are galvanized to protect them from rust. There are also aluminum nails--they're used with vinyl siding and aluminum trim coil.
What are three materials that make good conductors?
Copper, aluminum and gold.
Is aluminum good for keeping drinks warm?
aluminum is a netrual substance it doesnt make liquid any warmer or colder
