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


Is a TV magnetic?

Yes. Though it is not designed to be so. Anything with electricity running through it is magnetic. People are more concerned with how strong is this magnetic field generated by the electricity running through it. Go read up on electro-magnetism.


Is magnetic field strength a vector quantity?

When one refers to the strength of a magnetic field, they're usually referring to the scalar magnitude of the magnetic field vector, so no.

How does the variation of excitation of an alternator correct power factor?

The rotor of an alternator need a DC voltage applied to it to generate a magnetic field, this magnetic field will generate the AC power in the AC windings.The AVR(Automatic Voltage Regulator) is regulating this DC voltage so that the magnetic field is strong enough to maintain the output AC voltage. As soon as more current is drawn from the output, this output voltage will drop and a stronger magnetic field is needed to sustain the output voltage, so the AVR step up the exiting voltage to get a stronger magnetic field to compensate for the voltage loss in the AC windings.


Differentiative between diamagnetic paramagnetic and ferromagnetic?

Diamagnetic metals have a very weak and negative susceptibility to magnetic fields. Diamagnetic materials are slightly repelled by a magnetic field and the material does not retain the magnetic properties when the external field is removed. Diamagnetic materials are solids with all paired electron resulting in no permanent net magnetic moment per atom. Diamagnetic properties arise from the realignment of the electron orbits under the influence of an external magnetic field. Most elements in the periodic table, including copper, silver, and gold, are diamagnetic. Paramagnetic metals have a small and positive susceptibility to magnetic fields. These materials are slightly attracted by a magnetic field and the material does not retain the magnetic properties when the external field is removed. Paramagnetic properties are due to the presence of some unpaired electrons, and from the realignment of the electron orbits caused by the external magnetic field. Paramagnetic materials include magnesium, molybdenum, lithium, and tantalum. Ferromagnetic materials have a large and positive susceptibility to an external magnetic field. They exhibit a strong attraction to magnetic fields and are able to retain their magnetic properties after the external field has been removed. Ferromagnetic materials have some unpaired electrons so their atoms have a net magnetic moment. They get their strong magnetic properties due to the presence of magnetic domains. In these domains, large numbers of atom's moments (1012 to 1015) are aligned parallel so that the magnetic force within the domain is strong. When a ferromagnetic material is in the unmagnitized state, the domains are nearly randomly organized and the net magnetic field for the part as a whole is zero. When a magnetizing force is applied, the domains become aligned to produce a strong magnetic field within the part. Iron, nickel, and cobalt are examples of ferromagnetic materials. Components with these materials are commonly inspected using the magnetic particle method.


Is oxygen in its gas form magnetic?

In certain circumstances, yes. Oxygen is paramagnetic, so it is possible to induce a magnetic moment in it by exposing it to an external magnetic field. So basically, liquid oxygen only exhibits its magnetic properties in the presence of a magnetic field.


Why is mars magnetic field really weak?

The exact reason for Mars' weak magnetic field is not fully understood yet, but one possibility is that its core is cooling down and not generating enough heat to sustain a strong magnetic field. Another factor is Mars' smaller size and slower rotation compared to Earth, which may have led to the depletion of its magnetic field over time.


Does everything have a magnetic field?

No. Magnetic field arises due to a specific arrangement of electrons inside a substance. Hmm, I'd guess Yes. When there is electricity, there is a magnetic filed. Whenever an electron moves, not only does its electric field move, but also a magnetic field may be appreciated (if you are not moving with the electric field). OK, so gravity doesn't have a magnetic field.


Is magnetic a type of energy?

It takes some energy to build up a magnetic field; when the magnetic field collapses, the same amount energy is released again. So, it makes sense to consider that somehow, energy is stored in the magnetic field.
