To erase a floppy disk with magnets, you would need a strong magnet, such as a neodymium magnet. By placing the magnet close to the disk's magnetic media, the magnetic fields can disrupt the data stored on the disk. However, this method is not highly reliable, as the effectiveness depends on the strength of the magnet and the type of disk. Additionally, using magnets can potentially damage the disk, making it unusable.

what is a floppy disc
A Floppy disc is a input device.
The floppy disc drive was invented at IBM in 1967. It used 8" floppy discs. The first floppy disc drive in an IBM personal computer appeared in 1981. By this time the original 8" floppy disc had been replace by a 5.25" disc.
Magnets can disrupt the data encoded on a CD by affecting the alignment of magnetic particles within the disc's layers. This interference can overwrite or corrupt the stored information, resulting in data loss and potential damage to the disc.
A floppy disc
you can format
Yes.
Yes, it takes longer to load from a floppy disk.
Given that you have a floppy disc drive then yes you can.
Although they're not used any more - that would be a floppy-disc
