Are ferromagnetic materials weakly attracted to magnets?
No, ferromagnetic materials are strongly attracted to magnets. Ferrimagnetic materials are weakly attracted to magnets.
Why are some materials attracted to magnets and others not?
Ferro magnetic materials (those attracted to magnets) have a special arrangement of their electrons which makes them susceptible to magnetic fields. Materials without this special electron structure are not affected my magnets or electric fields in the same way.
Why does the magnet stick to the refrigerator?
Because most refrigerators are made of ferromagnetic materials, and ferromagnetic materials are attracted to magnets.
How many substances are attracted to magnets?
All materials can be affected by a magnetic field, therefor, in some degree, every "substance" can be.
What kinds of metal do not stick to magnets?
Lots of metals are not very magnetic (everything, even oxygen gas, is a little magnetic ... though some materials are actually repelled by magnets rather than being attracted to them).Materials that are strongly attracted to magnets are called ferromagnetic materials. As the name suggests, iron is one such metal, but cobalt and nickel are also ferromagnetic, and gadolinium is when cold. Some alloys are ferromagnetic and some aren't, but predicting which is which can be difficult, as materials that aren't themselves strongly magnetic may form an alloy that makes an extremely good magnet.Most elemental metals, other than those listed above, are at best paramagnetic (very weakly attracted to magnets). Copper and aluminium are two common examples (the US coin called a "nickel" is only 25% nickel, with the rest being copper, which is why it's not strongly attracted by magnets).
Are ferromagnetic materials weakly attracted to magnets?
No, ferromagnetic materials are strongly attracted to magnets. Ferrimagnetic materials are weakly attracted to magnets.
What are materials attracted by magnets called?
magnets
What you is a magnetic material?
The materials attracted by magnets are called magenetic materials.
Why are some materials attracted to magnets and others not?
Ferro magnetic materials (those attracted to magnets) have a special arrangement of their electrons which makes them susceptible to magnetic fields. Materials without this special electron structure are not affected my magnets or electric fields in the same way.
What materials can be magnets with the help of the stroking method?
iron and the materials that are attracted or repelled by the magnet
Are magnets attracted to all materials?
NO! Look, but a magnet by a coke can. Get it now?
What thing do magnets are attracted?
Magnets are attracted to other magnets.They may also be attracted to certain so-called magnetic materials (mainly iron). This is because the magnet can induce magnetism in the iron.
Why does the magnet stick to the refrigerator?
Because most refrigerators are made of ferromagnetic materials, and ferromagnetic materials are attracted to magnets.
Is sulfur attracted to magnets?
No, it isn't attracted to magnets
Why some materials are magnets and some are not magnet?
Ferro magnetic materials (those attracted to magnets) have a special arrangement of their electrons which makes them susceptible to magnetic fields. Materials without this special electron structure are not affected my magnets or electric fields in the same way.
What is the attraction to magnets called?
The word magnetic, or the word ferromagnetic refer to materials that can be attracted by magnets.
Is vanadium attracted to magnets?
Vanadium is attracted to magnets i.e. it is ferromagnetic.
