What is Difference of bar and horceshoe magnet?
A horseshoe magnet is curved.
Is there a scale for magnet strength?
They are bar magnet ,horse shoe magnet ,lime stone magnet.
What direction does the needle on a compass point when a horseshoe magnet is put beside it?
The direction of the needle will remain unchanged. This is due to magnetic forces, the needle will remain in line with the lines of magnetic force which flow between the north and south poles.
What are the physical properties of Pyrite?
It is a natural magnet that attracts iron.
Jim drops an iron magnet during a chemistry lab experiment and she finds that it is no longer magnetic so what has happened in terms of its properties?
A physical change occurred in which the iron remained iron, but lost one of its physical properties.
Why is horse shoe magnet called so?
The horseshoe magnet is called that because it is shaped like a horseshoe.
What happens when horseshoe magnets get attracted?
They make horseshoe magnet babies.
What is Difference of bar and horceshoe magnet?
A horseshoe magnet is curved.
What are the uses of horse shoe magnet?
Horseshoe magnets are used to teach the properties of magnets to students. They are also used to pick up metal items.
How do you make a horseshoe magnet?
In general, magnets are brittle and will break before they bend. And yes, refrigerator magnets bend, but in them the magnetic material is powdered. But if we took a bar magnet and bent it, we'd have a horseshoe magnet. It's not quite that simple to make a horseshoe magnet, but it isn't too tough, either.
Meaning of horseshoe magnet?
The shape - U
Is there a scale for magnet strength?
They are bar magnet ,horse shoe magnet ,lime stone magnet.
Is heating a bar magnet chemical or physical change?
Actually itz just a temporary physical change.........as u dont add on subtract anything frm the magnet exept heat.....,heat does not effect chemical properties of an iron magnet..
What is the separation of mixtures based on?
The physical properties of the things in the mixture. It could be that one part of the mixture is soluble, the other part insoluble - both physical properties. It could be that you use the boiling point of 2 liquids to separate them - physical properties. You could use a magnet if one part is magnetic and the other isn't - physical properties. And so on. But you are relying on physical properties rather than chemical properties.
Why is it inadvisable to make a horseshoe magnet from a flexible material?
A horseshoe magnet has a North pole one one of the feet and a south pole on the other. A magnet made of flexible material would collapse on itself as the two poles attract.
If suspended freely in which direction will horseshoe magnet will align?
yes it does
What direction does the needle on a compass point when a horseshoe magnet is put beside it?
The direction of the needle will remain unchanged. This is due to magnetic forces, the needle will remain in line with the lines of magnetic force which flow between the north and south poles.
