Why won't a magnet pick up a penny?
because the penny can't be magnetically charged.
What kind of magnet will pick up brass and copper?
Brass and copper are not magnetic materials, so a magnet will not pick them up. Magnets only attract materials that contain iron, nickel, or cobalt. To separate brass and copper from other materials, you would need to use methods such as sorting or using a different property like density.
Can magnets pick up nickel?
Normally nickel plating is applied to base metals that aren't attracted to a magnet. At the atomic level the plating itself is attracted but it's such a small amount of the total composition that the entire item won't stick to a magnet. The nickel component of US nickels (and nickel-clad coins such as dimes, quarters, and half-dollars) is so low that the coins aren't attracted for the same reason. Nickel metal makes up only 25% of a nickel coin and 8% of the other coins.
What can magnets pick up?
A 'tin can' is actually made of steel, which is a magnetic alloy of iron. There is sometimes a layer of tin (or zinc), electroplated onto the surface, so the name is misleading. It is more properly a 'tinned' can as it is a steel can which has been 'tinned' to stop it from corroding.

Does the shape of a magnet have an effect on how many paper clips it can pick up?
Yes, the shape of a magnet can affect how many paper clips it can pick up. Magnets with a stronger magnetic field and larger surface area can typically pick up more paper clips compared to smaller or weaker magnets. Additionally, the orientation of the magnet in relation to the paper clips can also impact its ability to pick them up efficiently.
What can pick up things that are made of iron?
A magnet can pick up things that are made of iron because iron is a ferromagnetic material, meaning it is attracted to magnets.
