Why do you not use magnesium to make car bodies?
Magnesium is a very flammable metal when heated to its flash point. Once it starts to burn, it is nearly impossible to extinguish, hence its use in magnesium road flares. It can be safely used in some alloys, but the cost is prohibitive.
Why are car bodies not made from a low densiy metal like magnesium?
Too expensive
What material is used to make most car bodies?
galvanized steel and plastic
What is the ferrous metal called to make car bodies?
The ferrous metal commonly used to make car bodies is steel. Steel is chosen for its strength, durability, and formability, making it ideal for providing structure and protection in automotive applications.
What process is used to make car bodies?
tempering process n casting process
What can you make with magnesium?
Magnesium can be used to make things like alloys, such as aluminum-magnesium alloys that are lightweight and strong. It is also used in flares, fireworks, and sparklers due to its bright white light when burned. Magnesium oxide is commonly used in supplements and medicines.
Why don't people use magnesium to make car bodies?
Because it is expensive and a fire hazard. Also not easy to work with. So the advantage of low weight is outbalanced by the disadvantage of price and complexity of machining.
Why not Magnesem to make a car?
While Magnesium is very light - Cars would be very expensive to make out of Magnesium plus Magnesium is not structurally strong enough to withstand a vehicle collision and - not to be ignored - Magnesium is a metal thst BURNS....and burns very hot - not good if your car caught fire.....Very Unsafe.

Because Georgina Sentinella Said So !
What is the most common material used on car bodies?
Galvinised mild steel,
Why is magnesium alloys better to make a car with than magnesium?
Usually, Alloys have better properties - like strength-to -weight ratio - than the parent metals. Pure Magnesium is also a bit nasty to use and work with as it can Catch fire.
