You can store energy in a rubber band by stretching it, and this potential energy becomes kinetic energy when you let go
Magnets can be destroyed just like any physical object can be destroyed if enough force is applied. Magnets can also be de-magnetised in a number of ways, including heating them, bending them out of shape, or exposing them to electric current.
of course, they do. A research project show that a motor constructed with magnets at specific directions & positions can run for atleast 100 years without break.But the magnets are not to be disturbed & also they don't have to be charged
Some other names include NdFeB, Neo, or Nib. This is also known as a rare-earth magnet and they have the potential to store large amounts of magnetic energy. Several different websites sell these - one is Applied Magnets.
mad black guy on crack about to steel from the chinese store!

There are two types of magnetic metals, those that are permanently magnetic, and those that become magnetic as a result of an electrical field, i.e. electro-magnets. * Some games such as travel chess have small magnets in the bases of the pieces, to hold them to the metal board. * Cupboard 'catches' can be magnetic. They close on contact, but can easily be released by pulling the door. * Some necklaces have a magnetic fastener. * Magnets are used to pick up magnetic items such as staples, paper clips, pins, * Small magnetic blocks are used to store paper clips on a desk. * Credit and ATM/cash cards have a magnetic strip on one side. It is magnetic because it contains magnetic metal powder in the plastic * Some screwdrivers are magnetized, to hold the screw prior to screwing the screw into wood or other material. * Cathode ray televisions and computer monitors use an electromagnet to direct electrons/pictures to the screen. * VHS tapes and common audio cassettes use magnetic tape, a thin plastic strip coated with a thin layer of magnetic powder in film form. * In computers, floppy disks and hard disks record data on a thin magnetic coating. * Speakers and Microphones have permanent magnets as part of their construction. * Electric motors and generators have combinations of electromagnets and permanent magnets * Refrigerator magnets use magnetic metal to make them stick to the refrigerator. * A manual compass uses a magnetized needle to indicate magnetic North.
Amazon is a great place to purchase magnets because they sell a variety. To purchase a customized magnet, a great place to go is Zazzle, they have a variety of colors, price options and sizes for magnetic art.
Anyone have a source of information about the effective range of a magnetic field that would cause damage to computerized or other electronic equipment? I'm researching an option to use rare earth magnets to assemble something, but I want to make sure that it won't screw up the electronic equipment that will be close to the magnets (but not in direct contact).

It is the magnetic elements in a magnetic disk that are used to store information.
Magnetic forces are not necessarily bad for computers, as mechanical hard disks use them to store information. However, you shouldn't place any magnetic objects near them as it will ruin your data that's store on those kinds of disks.
Magnets have a north and south pole. The read/write head can flip the polarity on a small portion if the magnetic surface to store data. The north and south poles make the binary 1s and 0s the computer understands.
STAPLES (TM) and WHSmith also you can get magnets from IKEA
in the national geographic store they have the equivalent to zen magnets.
The simple answer is that it takes much less time and energy to store them in the attracting potions. If you tried to store magnets in non attracting positions they will attempt to push themselves away from each other or align them self to the attracting positions of the other magnets. If forced togeater in non attracting positions over time they could become demagnetized or the weaker ones will realign to the polarity of the strongest magnetic force.
