What is the difference between magnet and magnetic and magnatism?

A magnet is an object that is magnetic if it displays magnetic properties. Think of it like this; If bar magnet attracts a piece of metal towards it, it is using magnetism (fluxuations in electric current) and therefore the magnet can be said to have magnetic properties.


Does most material have magnetic properties?

No, all materials do not have magnetic property. But if an iron is rubbed with a natural magnet,gets the properties of magnet.


You are discussing magnets with another person. That person thinks that breaking a magnet will destroy the magnets magnetic properties. Write a conversation you might have with the other person to exp?

A permanent magnet has magnetic properties because?

The magnetic domains are aligned


Groups of atoms with aligned magnetic poles are called magnetic what?

Within a magnet, the separate poles are composed of domains, regions where the individual atoms are aligned with parallel magnetic moments.


What do magnetic properties of a magnet depend on?

atomic structure


What distinguishes a permanent magnet from a temporary magnet?

Permanent magnets do not lose their magnetic ability. Temporary magnets, however, gain magnetic properties when they are touched or moved by a permanent magnet. The properties of a temporary magnet dissipates over time after the permanent magnet is removed.


What will happen to poles in a magnet when you cut a magnet in two?

Nothing happens, except that now you have two magnets. The poles of a magnet are not actually localized at the two ends of the magnet but are inherent to the magnetic properties of the magnet. As the magnetic properties are not altered by a modification of the magnet such as cutting it in half, there will be no effect on the poles of the magnet.


A piece of magnetic material that retains its magnetic properties after it is removed from a magnetic field?

That's a "permanent" magnet.


Is chlorine attracted to magnet?

No. Chlorine is not a metal with magnetic properties.


Would an aluminum can attract to a magnet?

No. The aluminum can does not have magnetic properties.


How can you destroy a magnet?

If you take a permanent magnet and heat it up past the Curie temperature (or Curie point, Tc) and cool it, the magnetic domains in the magnet, which were aligned when it was made, will become randomly oriented. When the "magnet" cools, its magnetic properties will have "disappeared" and the you'll have a piece of metal alloy. If you like, you can make a new magnet out of your hunk of metal by heating the metal past the Curie point again, applying a static magnetic field to it, and then cooling it back down in the presence of the magnetic field. That's the way the magnet was manufactured and made into a magnet to begin with.
