Magnetism can pass through most non-magnetic materials, e.g. paper, plastic, glass. However, this depends on how thick the material is, compared to the strength of the magnetic field (which weakens with distance). Magnets on either side of a non-magnetic material (even metal) can still have interacting fields.

Magnets will interact with any magnetic materials within their fields. To prevent a magnet from affecting another magnet, a more conductive material can be used to reroute the field (as with EMP shielding).

Can magnetism pass through nickel?

Basically...Yes! it is a type of metal magnetism can pass through various liquids such as water other examples include metal,copper and iron Magnetism can pass through nearly all types of materials which are non-magnetic>they include glass and paper. Usually magnetic materials conduct heat easily> an electro-magnet is,in layman terms,a magnet which can be turned on and off it turns on when a power source,usually a battery,runs electricity through it,activating it,and turns off when the power source is deactivated>it is commonly used in door bells magnets can spoil when they are dropped or heated. i hoped i answered your answer :)


Can magnetism pass through glass?

Yes, it can pass through glass and mirror and other things made up of glass.


Can magnetism pass through fruit juice?

Magnetism CAN pass through fruit juice. If you were to use a bar magnet on the table attracting another magnet on the other side, it would still attract. Magnetic studs are a good example of magnetism because they can stick/ connect together even through the flap of the ear.


What type of material always lets light pass through it?

Transparent materials will always allow light to pass through, translucent materials will allow light to pass through as well but the light rays will be scattered. Opaque materials will not allow any light to pass through.

What word is used for materials that light can pass through?

Transparent materials allow light to freely pass through them. Translucent materials also allow light to pass through them, but change the colour of the light.
