A magnet is used to attract metallic objects by drawing them towards the magnet. Strong magnets can be used for jobs such as the disposal of cars and other industrial uses.

Is the element nickel found in magnets?

Nickel is a ferromagnetic material, like iron and cobalt, so quite a few magnets have nickel in them. Nickel shows strong magnetic properties up to 355°C (671°F).Nickel is also a major constituent of Alnico, which is an alloy of Aluminum, Nickel and Cobalt. This alloy is widely used in magnets. Alnico magnets are found in industrial and consumer applications where strong permanent magnets are needed like in electric motors, guitar pickups, microphones, sensors, loudspeakers, etc.If not used directly in the magnet, Nickel is often used to plate magnets. Some common Nickel-plated magnets include Alnicos, Samarium Cobalt, and Neodymium Iron Boron
