A British 10p coin, and all British coins for that matter, are not magnetic.
Some piggy banks may have a magnetic feature to help secure coins in place, but not all piggy banks are magnetic. Magnetic piggy banks are designed with a magnetic base that attracts metal coins to keep them in place.
The non-magnetic pre-1992 'Bronze' Penny and Two Pence coins are made of copper, tin and zinc. British 1 Penny and 2 Pence coins were made from copper-plated steel from 1992 and can all be attracted to a magnet, although the coins themselves are not magnetic.
The "South Pole" (and the North Pole) is the axis about which the earth rotates. The "South Magnetic Pole" has nothing to do with the South Pole other than they are located within the Antarctic Circle. All magnets have a North and South Pole, the "South Magnetic Pole" and the "North Magnetic Pole" are the opposite ends of the earth's magnetic field.
a coin maybe magnetic but there are coins that are magnetic and others are not for example a coin coated with GOLD IS NOT MAGNETIC BUT ONE THAT HAS IRON IS MAGNETIC .More answers from other pages
U.S. paper money and coin money are both magnetic. They both have magnetic properties, but normal magnets rarely affect them. Mostly the stronger neodymium magnets can pull/affect them. The magnetic part of a U.S. note is near the corners where most the ink is at.
Well, honey, if we're talking about South African 1 rand coins, which have a diameter of about 20 mm, you could fit approximately 375 coins into a 2-liter Coke bottle. But who's got time to count all those coins? Just toss 'em in and see how many you can squeeze in there!
Yes. All magnets of north and south poles. There is no such thing as a magnetic monopole.
They all stick to metal.They are all made form iron nickel and colbaltall have a magnetic fieldall have a north and south polesall have used eg electromagnet has to be in a car dump yard.
The only US coins strongly attracted to a magnet were 1943 cents struck in steel instead of copper.All other US coins contain mostly non-magnetic metals such as copper, silver (up to 1964), zinc, etc. While pure nickel is attracted to a magnet, the amount used in most US coins is such a small percentage of the overall metal that the coins won't stick.
The above answer is NOT correct. Coins are not magnetic, but depending on the metal they're made of SOME of them may be attracted to a magnet. Specifically, coins made of steel or high concentrations of nickel will be attracted to a magnet but those containing other metals such as copper or aluminum are not. Some Canadian, British, and European coins are made of steel as were 1943-dated US cents; all of these are attracted to a magnet. Other coins though have a lot of copper in them (e.g. most US coins except cents) and these are NOT attracted to a magnet.
First of all, it's important to understand that 'Magnetic South' is a location, whereas 'south magnetic pole' refers to magnetic polarity.'Magnetic South' is located near 'True South' -i.e. the geographic South Pole. It is not a fixed location, but 'wobbles' around True South over time.The Earth's 'magnetic south pole', on the other hand, is located deep in the earth below the location of Magnetic North. This is because the Earth behaves like a giant bar magnet with its south magnetic pole located below True North and its north magnetic pole located below True South. The Earth's magnetic field, therefore, emerges perpendicularly from True South, and re-enters perpendicularly at Magnetic North. A compass aligns itself with this field.
