Best Answer

Aluminum is soft and easily worked (extrusion) to achieve certain shapes. However for certain usages it goes through the process of melting and further additions be made to the aluminum which allows certain mechanical properties to be achieved, the main form of making a shape is by extrusion followed by heat-treatment. There are other forms of making different shapes. This is just a basic answer.

Why do you mix aluminum with zinc to make zinc alloy?

depends on the process as to why you add aluminum. For zinc components, it is for strength. In galvanizing it is for providing a shiney surface. Alloys tend to be stronger and lighter than just pure metals. The ratio is critical to the process.

Why does it take longer for a magnet to fall through an aluminum cylinder?

In falling through the aluminum cylinder, the magnet attracts the aluminum of which it is made, and this force attraction "tries" to make it stop falling and stick to the side of the cylinder. But on the other hand, it is subject to the earth's strong gravitational field, which "tries" to make it continue its fall. As the magnetic force works in a different direction to the gravitational force, it will therefore interfere with the work that the latter is doing upon the magnet, and thus make it fall slower through the aluminum tube than it would normally do in air.
