It becomes magnetized by alignment of its electrons.
What else can I help you with?
A magnet made of a material that keeps its magnetism is called?
Permanet Magnet
Why does stroking a material with a magnet make it magnetised?
because the magnet causes particles called electrons in the atoms of the nail to align along the magnet's lines of force. The atoms with aligned electrons then act like tiny bar magnets themselves.
What happened to a bar magnet when broken in half?
Six. Every bar magnet has 2 poles. If a bar magnet is broken, each resultant piece will be a bar magnet in its own right.
When a magnet touch an iron nail does the nail becomes a temporary magnet?
The magnetic field would propagate through the material and extend itself for the length of the magnetic material in contact. As long as there is contact there is no pole present. When contact is broken the pole would be the opposite to the pole it was in contact with
Is there a relationship between the size and strength of a magnet?
In reality no. Though the size of a magnet does seem to affect the size of a magnetic field, it is in effect a ratio of volume, and does not change the effect of the magnetic field. The potential magnetism is not affected by size so much as composition of the magnet.
How did a magnet become a magnet?
A material becomes a magnet when its domains align in the same direction, creating a magnetic field. This alignment can be achieved by exposing the material to a magnetic field or by rubbing it with an existing magnet.
Can a magnet repel a ferromagnetic material?
Yes, a magnet can repel a ferromagnetic material if the poles of the magnet and the material are aligned in a way that causes repulsion.
Why might a permanent magnet become unmagnetized if it is dropped?
Dropping a permanent magnet can cause the magnetic domains within the material to become misaligned, reducing its overall magnetic field strength. This process can demagnetize the magnet if it is subjected to a strong enough impact.
How does magnetic material become a magnet?
A magnetic material becomes a magnet when its magnetic domains align in the same direction, creating a net magnetic field. This alignment can be induced by placing the material in a strong external magnetic field or by rubbing it against an existing magnet. This results in the material exhibiting magnetic properties itself, attracting or repelling other magnetic materials.
How a steel nail can become a magnet?
No it can't become a magnet.
A magnet made of a material that keeps its magnetism is called?
Permanet Magnet
Can a permanent magnet and a temporary magnet be made from the same magnetic material?
no they can not.
What is used to separate magnetic material from a mixture of other substances?
A magnet. The magnet will attract the magnetic material to it and so separate the magnetic material from the mixture.
What might happen if you drop a permanent magnet or strike it hard?
A permanent magnet may become unmagnetized because a shock it will have.
Stroking a magnetic material in one direction with a magnet produces a magnet by?
aligning the magnetic domains within the material in the same direction. This creates a magnetic field in the material, making it a magnet itself.
Why does a magnet lose its magnetic property when it is hammered?
Hammering a magnet causes the magnetic domains within the material to become misaligned, disrupting the overall magnetic field. This results in the magnet losing its magnetic property because the alignment of the domains is what creates the magnetism.
What is A magnetic substance can also be made into a?
A magnetic substance can also be made into a magnet by aligning its magnetic domains in the same direction. This alignment creates a magnetic field around the substance, allowing it to attract or repel other magnetic materials. The strength of the magnet depends on the material and the alignment of its domains.
