you can only magnetize something that contains iron. if what you have contains iron, then you rub a magnet on it
The magnetic materials which can magnetise and de-magnetise easily are called "soft magnetic materials" example:-ferrites,iron-cobalt alloy. The magnetic materials which cannot magnetise and de-magnetise easily are called "hard magnetic materials" example:-aluminium(al),nickel-cobalt alloy.
hold a piece of iron or magnesium up to it and if it attracts it is magnetic
Yes, with some metals. This is because; when the magnetic pull orders the atoms it will become magnetic, take away the magnetic pull and your metal won't be magnetic anymore. Hope I helped!
Electromagnets are only magnetised while the electrical current is switched on.
Colour: black, opaque. Streak: black. Lustre: metallic or dull. Cleavage: none. Hardness: 5.5-6.5. Specific Gravity: 5.2. Its diagnostic feature is that it is highly magnetic.
Yes, it is possible to magnetize EN8 steel. EN8 is a low carbon steel with good magnetic properties that can be magnetized through induction with a strong enough magnetic field.
Stainless steel cannot be magnetized in its standard form because it is a non-magnetic material. However, there are some specific types of stainless steel that can be magnetized through processes like work hardening or cold working. These processes can create some magnetic properties in the stainless steel.
Yes, a coil of wire with current passing through it can magnetize a piece of iron. This is because the current creates a magnetic field around the wire, which induces magnetization in the nearby iron material.
Water is magnetic material but dia magnetic
Rub the needle across a magnetic surface...always in the same direction, don't go back and forth. This will magnetise the needle. Then float the needle in a dish of water. And presto you have your own compass
temporarily magnetic
Silver is not magnetic. It is a non-magnetic material, which means it does not have magnetic properties and cannot be attracted by a magnet.
