a permanent magnet has its domains arranged in one direction at all times and is thus able to exercise magnetic properties at all times, but it loses its magnetism if it is heated to a certain extent

second way is to hammer it constantly. this disrupts the alignment of the domains (i.e. they are originally aligned in the same direction) and causes them to align in different directions thus destroying the magnetic behavior of the magnetic.
If their microcrystalline structure or chemical composition change, they tend to no longer be magnetic.

What type of magnetism is present in a bar magnet?

The known magnetism in a bar magnet is electromagnetism.


Is a bar magnet a permanent magnet?

A permanent magnet is a magnet which will keep its magnetism for a very long time and is difficult to change. No, As I think a permanent magnet means they have abilities to hold the magnetism when they are magnetized. Such as Alnico permanent magnets, but in fact, they can be demagnetized,such as high temperature, hit each other,pulse waves, out magnetic field influence...What's more, different permanent magnetic material, have different abilities on holding magnetism,they can be used in different environments. you can find some details from some manufacturers website, to learn some knowledges.


What role do electrons play in magnetism?

Magnetism is produced through electric currents. In the case of a permanent magnet, it is the electrons circling around the atomic nucleus that produces the magnetism (more atoms have one orientation than the opposite orientation).Magnetism is produced through electric currents.

Will a magnet still be a magnet if it is melted?

A magnet is produced by aligning the magnetic domains in a material to point in the same direction. When heated, the magnet loses its magnetism as the molecular motion, which is caused by heating, destroys the alignment of the magnetic domains. Ferromagnetic materials also lose its magnetism after being melted. However, when the magnet is being hammered whilst cooling in a magnetic field, the melted magnet would gain its magnetism again.


What is induced magnetism?

In the simplest terms, Induced Magnetism is the magnetism of an object as a result of an external influence. Typically, the external influence is a magnetic field due to another object. (One also hears the term transient magnetism applied to the same phenomenon. To be considered transient, the magnetism must disappear when the external influence disappears, but to be "induced" it just has to appear.) Though this is a technical term, it has a meaning that is the normal meaning of "induced," as in "caused by." This is to be contrasted with other modifiers, like "permanent magnetism" or "remnant magnetism" or "spontaneous magnetism" which are all still magnetism of an object but with a modifier further describing the magnetic state. If one is being more technical, then in scientific circles the term "induced magnetism" usually refers the situation where an object acquires a magnetic field as a result of it being in some external magnetic field even though it is not normally a magnetized material. One see this all the time. If you bring a permanent magnet near a collection of paperclips, then the paperclips all attach to one another and to the permanent magnet. Each paperclip has become, temporarily, a magnet. If the permanent magnet is removed, the paperclips no longer attach to one another. The magnetic properties of the paperclips were "induced" and not a permanent characteristic. More technicalities can be present with this term, because magnetism in an object can be induced in other ways than the application of a magnetic field. In the absence of such technical considerations, it is safe to assume that the term "induced magnetism" just means a temporary state of magnetization of an object induced by an external magnetic field provided by a permanent magnet or an electromagnet.

No it wont but if the water is hot then it will lose its magnetism


What is the difference between a permanent magnet and a temporary magnet?

Temporary magnet: good example is an electromagnet. It maintains magnetic attraction only so long as an electric current surrounds it. Permanent magnet: most common. Example: bar magnet. Will maintain magnetic properties for quite a while, although they can be eventually demagnetized.


How does a permanent magnet loses its magnetism?

It can lose it by being heated, being struck or being exposed to a rapidly changing magnetic field.

A permanet magnet will lose magnetism?

over time it will lose its magnetism. It will also lose its magnetism if it is temperature is to high or when it's vibrate too much.
