Iron and steel, the latter of which is an alloy of iron, carbon, and perhaps a few other metals, are sensitive to magnetic fields. In addition, the atoms are able to reorient themselves within the metallic crystal lattice to align themselves with the magnetic field. This creates what are termed magnetic domains. In summary, the magnetic domains created when the specified materials are exposed to a magnetic field will retain an "imprint" of the field that created them. The iron or steel is then said to be magnetized.

Is a matchstick magnetic?
No, they are made of wood or paper, and are not magnetic. An iron nail is attracted to a magnet, and can become magnetized.
How do you demagnetize a magnetized steel bar?
seeing as the nail is iron and iron is a metal that conducts metal, you won't need to do anything to that nail to make it magnetic seeing as the nail is iron and iron is a metal that conducts metal, you won't need to do anything to that nail to make it magnetic seeing as the nail is iron and iron is a metal that conducts metal, you won't need to do anything to that nail to make it magnetic
Are magnets attracted to steel?
The three elements effected by magnetism are Iron, Nickel, and Cobalt. Steel is a iron alloy.Generally speaking, yes , steel is magnetic. But it should be noted that there are a number of steels that are not magnetic. In order to answer this question, you must first identify the type of steel. Steel can also be magnetized[or made to be magnetic] using an electric field.
What happens to electrons in an iron object when the object is magnetized?
The electron spin is actually a tiny magnet When a material is magnetized, the spins line up
What is iron ore lumps and iron ore fines. What is the diference?
Iron ore lumps: size 10-40mm Iron ore fines: Granular size of up to 10 mm for up to 90% of the cargo. While lumps are crushed to 5-20mm size in crusher, normally 30% fines (waste) will be generated.For More Details Plz Visit at: steelmkts.com (Like, Ms Ingot, Scrap, Sponge Iron, Pig Iron, TMT, Rebars, Iron Ore, Wire Rod, Angle, Channle, Girder, HR/CR Coils, Billets, Iron Pellets, Rolling, Metals,etc. Prices) OR Call +91-98888-14974Iron & Steel Price in Mandi Gobindgarh, Steel & Iron Prices Of Ludhiana, Iron & Steel Prices in Mumbai, Steel Prices in Maharashtra, Steel & Iron Prices of Jammu, Iron Prices of Kolkata, Steel & Iron Rates in Durgapur,Steel & Iron Rates in Bangloure, Steel & Iron Rates in Bhavnagar, steel price in Tamil Nadu, Steel & Iron Prices in Chennai, Iron Price in Ahmedabad, steel price of Alang, Iron rates of Ghaziabad, Steel & Iron Price in Hydrabad,steel prices of Jaipur, Iron and Steel Prices in Bhiwari, steel price of Mujaffarnagar, iron & steel Rates in Raipur, iron prices of Rourkela, steel prices in Raigarh, Steel Prices of Nagpur, Iron & steel prices in Orissa,Steel Information and Marketing System
A material that can be magnetized?
the magnetic materials that can conduct electricity is iron, steel, nickel and colbalt. thats what i found on the internet
Could the iron reinforcing in buildings alter a compass direction?
the easy answer is NO. but, it could, but only if the iron was magnetized. in a lightning storm, some things can become magnetized. but usually, no, it couldnt.
How do bullets become magnetized?
A bullet could only become magnetized if made with a metal that can be (i.e. steel) and through normal methods like friction, magnetic induction, etc.
If a nail is made of steel will it be magnetized why?
Yes, if a nail is made of steel, it will will not be magnetized unless it is magnetized by a magnet by being hit.
Can iron be magnetised?
Iron is naturally magnetized.
Is a matchstick magnetic?
No, they are made of wood or paper, and are not magnetic. An iron nail is attracted to a magnet, and can become magnetized.
What is the difference between a strongly magnetized nail and a weakly magnetized nail?
In an un-magnetised nail there are tiny domains, each in themselves would be a little magnet, however, in a magnetized steel nail the magnetic "domains" tend to be lined up in the same direction. A domain is a tiny magnet because electrons are spinning with the same orientation. Refer to the related link in the Related Links section below for more details.
Will iron stick to the south or north of a magnet?
It will stick to either pole, providede that the iron is not magnetized and that it is not above the Curie temperature (the temperature above which iron can no longer be magnetized, named after Marie and Pierre Curie).
Strongest element that can be magnetized?
iron
What is capable being magnetized?
iron
Which metals can be magnetized?
IRON OXIDE
If your are given three iron rods how would you know which one is not magnetized?
The not magnetized rod will be attracted by both of the magnetized rods.
