What weakens a magnet?
A magnet can be weakened by heat or dropping it alot of times
What might happen if you drop a permanent magnet or strike it hard?
A permanent magnet may become unmagnetized because a shock it will have.
How do you demagnatise a magnet?
You can demagnetize a magnet by: -dropping it many times -heating it over a flame -hammering it many times
Dropping or heating a magnet will not weaken it because the domains will stay in alignment?
False
Is a bar magnet a permanent?
yes,but it can loose it's property by heating,hammering and dropping
How can magnetic strength be weakened?
magnet can be weakened by heating,dropping and keeping close to ferrous substances.
Can connecting a specific amount of magnet to one of your electric wires reduce the electricity usage?
No. Your magnet will fight the electricity.
How do you reduce a magnet's strength?
Give it a sharp hit with a hammer.
How could heating a bar magnet reduce its magnetism?
Heating a bar magnet could reduce its magnetism because the heat, by raising the energy level in the metal, disorients the atoms, which disrupts the magnetism.
What is your stregnth?
Mine is teaching people how to drive.
Can a magnet not be magnetic?
if it truly is a magnet, than no. however, you can demagnetize a magnet by dropping it or hitting it really hard to rearrange the domains within the magnet. Domains are the regions within a magnet that have particles that are either arranged so that the poles are attracted to each other or randomly arranged so that the particles are not magnetized at all. so if it is a magnet... it probably will be magnetic unless you take your anger out on it or something.
How can iron be demagnetized?
an iron can be demagnetised by ;-hammering it while facing east _west direction -hitting it hard on the ground -connecting it into an ac current while facing the east _west direction .
