Can a magnet erase information from memory sticks and computers?
A magnet can only change information that is stored magnetically and if the magnet's magnetic field is strong enough. Memory sticks do not store information magnetically, they use Flash memory which stores information electrostatically. So no, a magnet can not erase information on a memory stick. Computers usually use hard disks which do store information magnetically, so in principle a magnet could erase information from a hard disk. However the magnet would have to be very strong (much stronger than is likely to be available at home) and held very close to the hard disk (probably be inside the computer case or even inside the hard disk case itself) to be able to to erase the information. Computers before the 1970s usually used magnetic core memory instead of DRAM as their main memory. While this stored information magnetically, the construction of the cores as rings made it impossible for any magnet to change the information: the 1 and 0 were opposite directions of magnetization around the ring shaped cores, while an external magnetic field is "linear" not "circular" and thus can't change the state of a core.
