yes
No. Also, "pencil lead" is not lead; it is almost always graphite (made of carbon)
No, there are only 3 elements which can be magnetized: iron, cobalt and nickel
Lead resists electro magnetic waves.. it can be seen in many industries used for protective suits against various types of radiations..
In early 2014, scientists have discovered that the Earth's magnetic field has been weakening for some time. This could eventually lead to the switching of the Earth's magnetic poles.
Lead is not magnetic. Pencil lead is really carbon, in the form of graphite, and it is not magnetic.
yes
Lead wipe a brass nipple into the lead pipe and then use a female adapter x PVC on the brass threads
No, iron,cobalt,and nickel are the only known magnetic substance.
As a magnetic field passes by a ferrous material an electric current is created locally in that material, in this case the pipe. Anytime an electric current is produced that changes with time, a magnetic field is generated. The magnetic field that the pipe produces creates a force in the opposite direction of gravity. This magnetic field created by the pipe affects the magnet falling and creates a breaking force. This whole thing is refereed to as Eddy Currents.
No. Lead is not magnetic. Polishing it does not change this.
Graphite is not magnetic as it is made out of carbon. E.g; Pencil lead is mostly made out of graphite, it is NOT magnetic.
Well I play Euphonium and just got my lead pipe fixed for 50 dollards.
When I have to connect copper to lead "D" I usually solder the copper to the lead or wipe a lead joint depending on the diameter To connect copper to cast iron ,.... If there is a hub I caulk the copper directly into the CI with oakum and poured lead (molten) OR one can solder / braze a female adapter fitting and screw the copper into a CI female fitting
Iron is magnetic, lead is not.
No. Also, "pencil lead" is not lead; it is almost always graphite (made of carbon)
The best approach is using an alloy that contains more lead then tin as the melting point will be lower thus less chance of buring a hole through the lead pipe. Lead wiping is the best approach
