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.

What does electromagnetic mean?
An electromagnet is a magnet caused by electricity.
How do you sepeerate metal shavings and pepper?
One way to separate metal shavings and pepper is to use a magnet to attract the metal shavings, leaving the pepper behind. Another method is to use a sieve or strainer to filter out the metal shavings while allowing the pepper to pass through.
When you rub a magnet with metal what happens to the metal object?
When you rub a magnet with metal, the metal object becomes temporarily magnetized. This happens because the atoms in the metal align with the magnetic field of the magnet. However, once the magnet is removed, the metal object loses its magnetism.
How do you make a metal magnet?
To make a metal magnet, you can create a temporary magnet by stroking a metal material (like iron) with a permanent magnet in the same direction. This aligns the magnetic domains in the metal. For a more permanent magnet, you can heat the metal to a specific temperature and then cool it in the presence of a magnetic field to enhance its magnetic properties.
Does putting ferrous metal behind a magnet increase the magnets Gauss output?
Putting ferrous metal behind a magnet does not increase the magnet's Gauss output; rather, it can affect the magnetic field distribution. Ferrous materials can concentrate and redirect magnetic field lines, potentially enhancing the effective field in certain areas but not increasing the intrinsic strength of the magnet itself. The Gauss measurement refers to the strength of the magnetic field generated by the magnet alone, which remains unchanged by the presence of ferrous materials.
What is an object that attracts metal?
A magnet is an object that attracts metal due to its magnetic field. When a metal object comes in close proximity to a magnet, it is pulled towards the magnet due to the attractive force between the magnetic poles.
How does a cow magnet attract metal?
The exact same way that a normal magnet attracts metal.
How does a scrapheap magnet work?
A junkyard or recycling center may employ a large magnet crane to move metal objects and scrap.It is an electromagnet : with the power turned on, it attracts the ferrous materials to its metal disk. When the crane has reached the desired location (pile, container, or truck), the power is turned off and the magnetic attraction ceases, dropping the materials.
What is megnet?
a magnet is a metal thingy that can pull a metal object towards it
Can you magnetize a metal by putting the metal on top of a magnet?
Some metals are naturally paramagnetic, meaing that you can induce a magnet field on it but only with a very strong magnet. To actually magnetize the metal itself without a magnet, you would have to make an induced magnet by wrapping the metal around a copper wire and sending electricity through it. It all has to do with the arrangement of the electrons within the metal.
