What types of metal can't a scrap heap magnet move?

non magnetic metals. the only magnetic ones are nickel, cobalt and iron.


How could magnetic rocks affect a compass and why?

In a regular magnetic compass, the needle is a magnet. One end is the south pole and the other end is the north pole. Magnets are affected by other magnets. If a magnet is placed near a magnetic compass, the north pole of the compass's needle is attracted by the south pole of the magnet, and the south pole of the compass's needle is attracted by the north pole of the magnet.


What are the different types of magnetic Tapes?

types of magnetic tapes


Who invented poles?

There are two types of global poles; magnetic and geographic. Neither were invented. The magnetic poles are two points on the Earth where the magnetic field is most intense. The geographic poles are the northernmost and southernmost positions on the globe.


What are the 4 different types of magnetic materials?

Iron, Nickel, Cobalt and Gadolinium are the 4 metallic elements with strong magnetic properties but their are more materials than can be magnetic. Steel is an iron alloy that is magnetic. Stainless steel is an alloy of iron, chromium and maybe other materials. Not all stainless steel is magnetic. The amount of magnetic material in it (iron, nickel) determines if it is magnetic or not. ALNICO magnets made of Aluminum, Nickel, and Cobalt are very strong permanent magnets. Ceramic magnets are made of a powdered magnetic material mixed with a ceramic material that gives them a softer texture that will not scratch surfaces and they are popular as refrigerator magnets.

What types of materials behave like iron when place in to magnetic field?

Elements that are paramagnetic can act like iron when placed in a magnetic field. This is because of the presence of unpaired electrons in their valence shell. For example, liquid oxygen can have some magnetic properties (attracted to the magnet) when poured between the poles of a magnet.


Is conglomerate magnetic?

Usually not, but it depends on the types of materials in it (if they are magnetic then it will be).


What are the different types of magnetic losses occurring in ferromagnetic materials under AC excitation?

types of magnetic losses


Does earth's magnetic field cause gravity?

No, Earth's magnetic field does not cause gravity because there are two different types of forces.


What types of metal are magnets?

aluminum Ans 2 - Aluminium is NOT magnetic. The primary magnetic materials are iron and some steel.


Name the types of alternators based on their rotor construction?

1) Rotating armature alternator, rotates in stationary magnetic field. 2) Rotating field alternator, the magnetic field is rotating.


Can ore conduct electricity?

No, but some types of iron-ore have a permanent magnetic field.


Is tin magnetic?

There really isn't a "yes" or "no" answer to this question. There are two types of tin: white tin and gray tin. White tin is paramagnetic, while gray tin is diamagnetic. Paramagnetic materials will have its dipoles(a closed circulation of electric current) orient with the magnetic field, when exposed. Diamagnetic materials, on the other had, will orient the opposite field. There's a bit more to it than that...but without knowing your level of knowledge in physics and chemistry, it would be difficult to explain in its entirety. I hope that answered your question at least a little...


What are magnetic types?

ferromagnetism - permanent magnets, with N and S pole, all the atoms are aligned and 'spin' the same way so the magnetic field is strong in one direction paramagnetism - an object becomes temporarily magnetic when a field is applied and the resulting field is parallel to the applied field diamagetism - a temporary magnetism opposite to that of the applied field


Can iron ore conduct electricity?

No, but some types of iron-ore have a permanent magnetic field.


Do magnets repel non magnetic materials?

No, a magnet does NOT have the ability to attract materials that are NON-magnetic (unless it has something magnetic on it, or has magnetic material in it). Duhhh!!! I'm in seventh grade and even I know that!!! ; )
