Magnetic materials (materials capable of becoming magnets), such as iron, have the capability to form small magnetic regions, called "magnetic domains". In these, the atoms are oriented in a preferential direction, causing the magnetism; when an external magnetic field is applied, the domains themselves rotate, so that more of them point in one direction than in the other. In that case, the material is magnetic.A magnetic field may also be caused by an electrical current. This is used in electromagnets.

What is used to separate magnetic material from a mixture of other substances?
A magnet. The magnet will attract the magnetic material to it and so separate the magnetic material from the mixture.
How does magnetic material become a magnet?
Placing the material in a strong magnetic field will align its' domains. You can swipe a metal tool on a magnet and make it a magnet.
What is the on material that can be found in all objects attracted by a magnet?
It is not material Per se but one thing that is found in all objects attracted by magnet are atoms.
What material is suitable for a bar magnet?
I do think that steel is the perfect material to use.......
Is a magnetized magnet heavier than an unmagnetized magnet?
An unmagnetized magnet is not a magnet. A magnet remains a magnet only as long as it remains magnetic,and ceases to be a magnet when its magnetization is lost.Be that as it may in any event, the state of magnetization of a sample of magnetic material, whether magnetizedor unmagnetized, has no bearing, neither ball nor thrust, on the weight of the magnetic material. In other words,weight is invariant under a transformation of the magnetized state.
What makes magnets stick too metal?
the magnet it could stick together becaus esomehow the metal attracts the magnet and it makes pulls the metal material and stick to it
What a moving magnet makes?
makes current flow through a magnet
What is used to separate magnetic material from a mixture of other substances?
A magnet. The magnet will attract the magnetic material to it and so separate the magnetic material from the mixture.
Can a permanent magnet and a temporary magnet be made from the same magnetic material?
no they can not.
A magnet made of a material that keeps its magnetism is called?
Permanet Magnet
Definition of a magnet?
A magnet is a material or object that produces a magnetic field.
Is brass a magnet or a magnetic material?
no
How does magnetic material become a magnet?

What is a superconducting magnet?
A superconducting magnet is one that is made of material that exhibits the property of superconductivity.
Stroking a magnetic material in one direction with a magnet produces a magnet by?
stroking dumbo
How would you check to see if a material was magnet?
You must bring a magnet check device!!!
When all of the magnet domains line up on their own the material is called?
a permanent magnet
