US Coins actually have very little nickel in them. Cents are copper-plated zinc, nickels are actually 75% copper, and other denominations are over 80% copper.
That means there isn't a sufficient density of nickel to be strongly attracted to a magnet. However even though it's not enough to be felt by your hands, there's still enough attraction that the electronic scanners in most vending machines can measure it as a way to detect counterfeit coins.

What is the charge of nickel?
In a neutral atom of nickel (Ni28) has 28 electrons. These 28 electrons each have a charge of -1, and that makes a total electron charge of -28. For the charge in coulombs, take the charge of one electron, which is -1.602 × 10-19 coulombs and multiply it by 28. This isn't right because you have to account for the protons in the nucleus of the atom. It should be zero. I think what your looking for is its ionization charge, which I don't know off the top of my head
What is Electron Bombardment?
Electron bombardment is a process where neutral atoms are converted to positive ions by bombarding them with electrons. Electrons are knocked off the atoms when fast moving electrons collide with them, forming positive ions.
When excited electrons radiate energy the amount of energy given off is equal to?
Photons
The ability of metals to give-off and take-in electrons thus producing a current?
conductivity
What elements easily give up electrons?
Metals, particularly the alkali metals- lithium, sodium, potassium, etc

If nickel and a penny were crossing a bridge the penny fell off why didn't the nickel fall too?
The nickel 'nicked' the penny. At least that's wat i thought.
Will shampoo get rid of bot flie eggs?
I dont think shampoo will get them off they are really strong and have to either pulled them off with something. Or get a bot fly scraper you can buy them from a Horse shop. Or if you have some kind of scraper around you horse to get them off.
In the photoelectric effect what happened when light hits the metal?
electrons are knocked off atoms causing electricity to flow

Can a dove fly with one wing?
Nothing can fly without a complete wing or set of wings. Balance would be off primarily.
Is energy given or taken off with electrons?
It is given off
