Yes, a magnet will work under water. To cite one example, a magnet on a string out on the docks is sometimes used to retrieve car keys that tourists sometimes accidently drop into the water.

Answer 2

Yes. Water is diamagnetic, but it impedes a magnet's strength only very slightly, not to a significant degree.

Answer 7
