Magnetism in metals is due to electrons flowing in the same direction, causing a magnetic field. Not all metals produce a magnetic field.
YES
No, a ruby does not respond to magnet.
all magnets attract ferrous metals (metals containing iron) and the opposite poles of another magnet.
Ferrous metals, such as: Iron (Fe) Cobalt (Co) and some alloys respond to magnetism. Aluminum responds to electromagnetic eddy currents.
A magnet can be used to separate ferrous metals (containing iron) from non-ferrous metals. When the magnet is passed over a mixture of metals, the ferrous metals will be attracted to the magnet and can be easily separated out. Non-ferrous metals, which are not magnetic, will not be affected by the magnet and remain in the mixture.
No, aluminum nails are not attracted to magnets. Aluminum is a non-ferrous metal, which means it does not have magnetic properties like ferrous metals such as iron or steel. Therefore, aluminum nails will not respond to a magnet.
the crane has magnet to separate the metals from others
metals
Non-metals do not have freely moving electrons in their outer shell to create a magnetic field. In order to be attracted by a magnet, a material must have unpaired electrons that can align with an external magnetic field. Non-metals lack this property, which is why they do not respond to magnets.
A magnet is attracted by metals containing iron in their makeup, primarily steel.
Iron and nickel are two metals that are attracted to a magnet.
A magnet will attract ferromagnetic metals such as iron, nickel, and cobalt. These metals contain atoms with magnetic moments that align in the presence of a magnetic field, causing attraction to the magnet.
