They can, but you have to understand that magnetism and oxidation (the process that causes rust) are unrelated.
The most common magnetic element that corrodes to form rust is iron. When aligned, atoms of iron will possess a magnetic field that will lead to interaction with other magnetic, ferrous materials. Iron will oxidize to form rust.
if rust is forming on a wheelbarrow, it is already magnetic. Rust is Iron Oxide, and a wheelbarrow must be made of iron if there is rust on it. Iron is always magnetic, so an iron wheelbarrow would be magnetic regardless of whether it had no rust or lots of rust on it.
Magnetic materials are materials that can be magnetized and can create a magnetic field, such as iron and nickel. Non-magnetic materials do not respond to magnetic fields and cannot be magnetized, such as wood and plastic.
yes it is because the compounds of metal is still in the rust which the magnet pulls by its magnet field with the power of positive and negative energy rubbing against eac other creating a magnetic ull which pull an metal even if there is only one atom of metal left in the rust.
Generally, yes. The lay-man's translation of something that is ferrous is "it contains iron". Substances containing iron are commonly magnetic. One good example is black rust - called ferrous oxide. Careful, though, since red rust - called ferric oxide - is NOT magnetic.
Yes, materials with magnetic properties are often referred to as magnetic materials because they exhibit characteristics such as attracting or repelling other materials with magnetic properties and the ability to create magnetic fields.
Certain materials are magnetic because their atoms have unpaired electrons that create a magnetic field. This magnetic field allows the material to attract or repel other magnetic materials.
Only materials with magnetic properties, such as iron, nickel, and cobalt, can become magnetic. Other materials, such as wood or plastic, do not have the necessary properties to become magnetic.
It is called the magnetic force. This is a force caused by the attraction or repulsion of the magnetic fields of the materials.
If two materials have weak magnetic domains, it means that the magnetic moments of the atoms within these materials are not strongly aligned. This results in a weak overall magnetic effect exhibited by the materials.
Materials that allow the magnetic force to pass through are known as ferromagnetic materials, such as iron, nickel, and cobalt. These materials have unpaired electrons that align in the presence of a magnetic field, creating a magnetic domain that can conduct magnetic force. Other materials like steel and certain alloys can also exhibit magnetic properties and allow the magnetic force to pass through to varying degrees.
Non-magnetic materials are often referred to as diamagnetic materials. These materials have a weak or no response to magnetic fields and are typically repelled by magnets. Examples include wood, plastic, copper, and water.
