One form of magnetic glass is a painted glass that is laminated to steel. This gives the glass a magnetic white board effect. Because any magnet used must be strong enough to reach the steel through the glass this generally only works with strong magnets like rare earth magnets.

Is window glass attracted to magnet?
no, glass isn't magnetic
Can magnetism pass through glass and why?
I don't think magnetism is affected by glass. Edit: Magnetic field are unaffected by glass. Magnets and electrical fields in general are only effected by other magnetic fields and materials which generate them. Think of a compass that is brought near another magnet. Magnetic fields are exponential in strength meaning that they are most strong at the surface and quickly fade with distance. Dont remember the equation but its simple and straight forward. So if you want a magnetic field to extend through a thick (5mmm) piece of glass you will need larger more powerful magnets such as rare earth or neodymium magnets. Its really about the strength of the magnet and the distance of the magnetic field. Hope that helps.
What happens to force between two charged bodies when a glass plate is introduced in between them?
Electrostatic or magnetic charges ? the answers are different.If electrostatic charges, I GUESS that an antistatic-coated glass plate would not affect the charges at all.If it were left to accumulate charge, an insulating glass plate placed between the two charges would assume a potential between that of the two bodies. [Assuming it were free to accumulate a charge.]If magnetic charges, the glass plate would have no effect. [But the 'glass plate' equivalent would be a soft iron sheet, or a wire mesh screen of soft iron. ...Continue with your analysis of the analogy.
Why is glass not magnetic?
The reason i have this question is because when i put a glass ashtray in front my TV without a using it at all. There is an area of the TV screen that has a tint variation only were tha ashtray is sitting. I am wondering if it can hold remnance of a magnetic field because a recently used the ashtray to hold a rare earth magnet for an expeirament and recently have noticed this anomaly. Because i've had the understanding that glass has no magnetic properties.
Slow glass that reduces the speed of light?
Most forms of glass do not change the speed of light. Darker glass lets less light through it Glass at an angle to light may refract ( bend) light or glass may break light up into all the colours the light is made of rainbow / spectrum. The only way anyone has successfully stopped and restarted light is using magnetic beams
Is window glass attracted to magnet?
no, glass isn't magnetic
Does a magnet attracts glass marble?
A marble with a magnetic
Does magnetic force travel through glass?
It depends on how thick the glass is and how strong the magnets are.
Where can you buy magnetic glass write boards?
Magnetic Glass Write Boards can be purchased in a variety of colors and sizes from HighTower Group. They have a good website that includes an online video overview: In addition to magnetic glass they also sell all of the accessories like white dry erase markers, magnetic erasers and rare earth magnets
Things that are non magnetic and magnetic?
Magnetic materials: -steel -iron -nickel -cobalt Non-magnetic materials: -aluminum -copper -zinc -gold -silver -wood -plastic -glass Note: Not all forms of Iron are magnetic.
How do you separate wooden marbles from glass marble?
One possible way to separate wooden marbles from glass marbles is by using a magnetic field. Since wooden marbles are typically not magnetic, while glass marbles are also not magnetic, one can use a strong magnet to attract and separate the wooden marbles from the glass marbles. The magnet will attract the wooden marbles while the glass marbles will remain unaffected and can be easily sorted out.
Are marbles magnetic?
Not if it is a glass marble, but you can get metal marbles which would be magnetic in many cases.
How does a magnet finding glass work?
magnets cant find glass unless the glass has iron essence in it or has been rubbed up against magnetic metal a lot.
What medium is magnetic disc?
The hard disks of computers are usually glass or aluminum coated with a very thin layer of fine grained magnetic material.
Can a glass object be a electromagnet?
no it cant, because it will never have the abiliry to obtain magnetic properties
Can Magnet attract a steel paper clip through air and water but not glass?
That statement is not true. Yes a magnet will attract a steel paper clip through air or water. No, a magnetic field will penetrate glass as well... probably. Certain types of glass (which are themselves ferromagnetic) might serve to block a magnetic field.
How can you tell if something is so magnified?
in a magnifying glass the glass is special type of glass. glasses lense are made of lint glass. magnifying glass is made of a thick glass. telescopes and magnifying glasses both use thicker glass than the usual. hope i helped you.
