Well, when you make it into a coil and pass an electrical current through it, yes. In its normal state, however, it is not.

Is copper wire a magnetic material?
no
Will a magnet pick up more nails when covered in copper wire or metal wire?
copper wire because we all know that metal strengthens the magnetic field but copper has a special property that strengthens the magnetic field further so copper is the answer P.S. i already did the experiment
Is copper ferrous?
it produces a magnetic field. i think that if current is passed through the wire it can attract pieces of iron
What is tinned copper wire?
copper wire that is coated with tin
Is copper wire heterogeneous?
A copper wire is considered to be a homogeneous system.
Is copper wire a magnetic material?
no
Will a copper wire not carrying a current be attracted to a magnet?
No, a copper wire that is not carrying a current will not be attracted to a magnet. Copper is not a magnetic material, so it does not interact with magnetic fields in the same way that magnetic materials like iron or nickel do.
What happens when copper wire is moved through a magnetic field?
A net force acts on the electrons in the copper wire ...the electrons move depending on the direction of magnetic field and the motion of the wire and henc e there will be a current in the wire
Is copper wire is magnetic?
it produces a magnetic field. i think that if current is passed through the wire it can attract pieces of iron

Can magnets attract a copper wire?
No, copper is not magnetic. That said, if the copper wire has an electric current flowing through it then it will generate its own magnetic field around the wire. It seems feasible that this could be enough to move the wire if you have another magnet near it.
A solid copper sphere of radius 3cm is melted and electric wire of diameter 0.4cm is made out of the copper obtained find the length of wire?

Which kind of magnet has the same magnetic field as the long coil of wire?
copper
Is knife a magnetic object?
Yes, in general terms at least. Anything magnetized behaves as a magnet.
Are copper wire and knives and paper clips magnetic?
Anything with iron in it is magnetic, or can be magnetized. Copper is non-ferrous metal and is not magnetic, although it is a good conductor of electricity and can be used to generate electromagnetic fields.
How could straight copper wire produce magnetic field lines?
The copper by itself will do nothing of the sort. It will be surrounded by magnetic field lines if a current flows through it. It is the current that produces the magnetic field lines.
