I see where you're going, and it is feasible, but any magnetic charges that develop in it would be veryextremely minute (meaning very little). But to answer your question, Earth can magnetize an iron bar because the poles in iron are scattered in different directions, and as it's just laying there, they naturally align with Earth's magnetic field. It's hard to explain, because magnetism is such an abstract force, but all I can say is that it naturally happens.

How can you magnetize an item that is ferromagnetic?

To magnetize a ferromagnetic item, you can stroke it several times in one direction with a magnet to align its magnetic domains. This process will induce a magnetic field in the item, making it magnetic.


How do you magnetize an object?

To magnetize an object, you can rub it with a magnet in the same direction multiple times. This aligns the magnetic domains within the object, creating a magnetic field.


How can I magnetize hematite?

To magnetize hematite, you can expose it to a strong magnetic field or rub it with a magnet in the same direction multiple times. This process aligns the internal magnetic domains of the hematite, making it magnetic.


How can you magnetize an object?

If the material can be magnetized e.g Iron, cobalt etc. then you take a magnet and stroke your material over and over again in the same direction until magnetized or you can expose it to a strong magnetic field (often an electromagnet), then it will magnetize the object. The force required to magnetize an object is usually greater than can be achieved solely with a magnet made from a similar material.


How do you permanently magnetize something?

To permanently magnetize something, you can expose it to a strong magnetic field or stroke it repeatedly with a magnet in the same direction. This aligns the magnetic domains within the material, creating a permanent magnet.


Is earths core a source of earths magnetic field?

Yes.


How do you magnetize something made of ironcobalt or nickle?

You can magnetize something made of iron, cobalt, or nickel by exposing it to a magnetic field. This can be done by using a strong permanent magnet or by passing an electric current through the material. The magnetic domains within the material align to create a magnetic field, magnetizing the object.


How are the Earths magnetic field made?

It is made by the movement of the earths core and magma field


Earth's magnetic field results from the spinning of the?

The earths magnetic field results from deep in the earths core. Magnetic conduction from within the earths core is believed to be the cause of this.


How do you magnetize a piece of metal effectively?

To magnetize a piece of metal effectively, you can rub a magnet along the metal in one direction multiple times. This process aligns the magnetic domains within the metal, creating a magnetic field. Alternatively, you can expose the metal to a strong magnetic field for a period of time to induce magnetization.


What are two primary differences between an electromagnets magnetic field and earths magnetic field?

First one is artificial where as the latter is natural We could increase or decrease the strength of magnetic field but we cannot vary earth's Intense field could be produced but earth's field is feeble in comparison with artificial


Why do scientists believe that the inner core is the source of earths magnetic field?

because it has the hydro electric power to control the earths magnetic field
