When a piece of iron behaves like a magnet when it is touching a permanent magnet that is called?
The process by which a iron piece touching a permanent magnet behaves as a magnet as long as it maintains contact is called magnetic induction. not only does this work when the iron is physically touching the magnet but it works as long as the piece of iron remains under the influence of the magnet. A iron piece attracted to a magnet through a paper with out any physical contact will also behave as a magnet.
How could you find the North Pole of magnet?
Suspend the magnet on a string at its CG, so it balances. The end that points north is its north pole.Alternative AnswerUse a compass. It will be attracted to the magnet's south pole.
Can you break a compass with a magnet?
In a compass box we have a small magnetic needle to which an aluminum pointer is attached at right angle. Since it has a magnetic piece, it has to respond to other magnets. In some boxes we have the pointer small in size is itself a magnet pivoted freely.
How can you tell if a piece of iron is magnetized or neutral?
If the piece of metal is a magnet it will attract another piece of iron. You should be able to feel this attraction as the two become very close. It's magnetic field can be "seen"( that is the effect) by placing iron filings on a piece of glass and place the magnet beneath the glass. Otherwise it is not a magnet.
If you hang a magnet on a piece of string what would it do?
it will do nothing
How could a piece of iron be moved without touching it?
By using magnet at bottom

How can you use a magnet to tell if gold jewelry is real?
Yes because if the piece of jewelery were real, then the magnet will work and the piece of jewelery will be attached to the magnet. So yes.
Is tools and apparatus are the same?
Tools are not quite the same as an apparatus. Tools are objects specifically designed to help people to do work. Common tools are hammers, screw drivers, and saws. Tools do not work by themselves. An appartus is generally a more complicated piece of machinery that can work by itself. For example, a washing machine. Something like a car, which requires a driver but is still a very complicated piece of machinery, could be described either way; it is a tool for travelling, or an apparatus, although I think that it would more likely be described as a machine.
A magnet attracts a piece of iron and the iron can then attract another piece of iron .What is the basis of this attraction?
When an iron piece is quite away from the magnet ,i.e, not present in magnetic field of the magnet then the iron piece is in neutral state ,i.e, there is no north & south pole . But , as soon as the iron piece interacts with magnetic field of magnet ,i.e, near to the magnet then the north pole of magnet make the nearer part or end of the iron piece south pole & simultaneously other part of iron becomes north pole . Similarly if south pole of the magnet interacts with iron piece then that end/part becomes north pole & other end becomes north pole . Now this iron piece has north & south pole .So iron piece is now converted into magnet which can attract other iron pieces in similar way as explained before .
Where you get magnet?
To get a magnet.Magnets are available in nature.You can make a magnet by tying a piece of iron to a strong magnet for some time.You can also get a magnet by making an Electo-magnet or solenoid.
Why doesn't a normal piece of magnet act like a magnet?

Does a magnet repell?
yes a magnet repell. Because if you put a piece of sheet it would not do anything but if you have another magnet and you put it on the south and the magnet is south then it will repell
