Only if that piece of steel is the north pole of a compass.
In short the steel has to be magnetized, and it has to be able to move. A bar magnet resting on the ground would not move because there is too much friction and the force of the magnetic pole is relatively weak.
Though apparently if you suspend a bar magnet by a piece of string, it will align itself to the poles.
What else can I help you with?
Can steel can attract with south pole magnet?
Yes, steel can be magnetized and will attract to a south pole magnet due to its ferromagnetic properties. When a steel material is in close proximity to a magnet, the magnetic domains within the steel align with the external magnetic field, leading to attraction between the two.
Why is steel attracted to a magnet but not brass?
magnets attract steel why then is a compass needle affected by a pice of steel if the steel is not magnetised
What materials attract dirt?
There are many materials that attract dust.But one of the most common is actually Stainless Steel.
Why can't a magnet hold a piece of paper on a referigator?
A piece of paper is not magnetic, so it does not interact with the magnetic field produced by the magnet. The magnet can only attract materials that are magnetic or contain magnetic elements, like iron or steel.
What kind of magnet can attract steel and iron due to electricity?
An electromagnet can attract steel and iron due to electricity. When an electric current flows through the coil of wire in an electromagnet, it creates a magnetic field that can attract ferromagnetic materials like steel and iron. The strength of the magnetic field can be controlled by adjusting the amount of electric current flowing through the electromagnet.
Would a North Pole attract a piece of steel?
Doubt it because the piece of steel is not magnetized.
Will the north pole of a magnet attract a peice of unmagnetised steel?
That depends on the steel. If it is a ferrous steel the magnet (either North or South) will attract it - If it is a a stainless steel that is austenitic steel it will not.
Can steel can attract with south pole magnet?
Yes, steel can be magnetized and will attract to a south pole magnet due to its ferromagnetic properties. When a steel material is in close proximity to a magnet, the magnetic domains within the steel align with the external magnetic field, leading to attraction between the two.
A north pole will attract a piece of unmagnetised steel?
Only by inducing a magnetic field within the "unmagnetised steel".
Does steel attract steel?
Yes.
What will attract steel but not brass?
A strong magnet will attract steel due to its ferromagnetic properties, while it will not attract brass as it is not a ferromagnetic material.
Will a strong magnet attract a piece of copper?
no it wont because copper is not a type of magnet even though it is a metal
Is steel attractive to magnets?
no carbon steel not attract to magnets
Why metal can does not attract to the magnet?
magnets only attract iron and steel
Does stainless steel attract lightning?
No, stainless steel does not attract lightning. Lightning is attracted to tall objects, such as trees, buildings, and towers, due to their height and conductivity. Stainless steel is not a significant conductor of electricity and does not attract lightning strikes.
How successful were efforts to attract industry to the South?
Southern leaders pushed hard to attract industry. States offered large inducements and cheap labor to investors to develop the steel, lumber, tobacco, and textile industries.
Why does the screwdriver attract some screws but not others?
If your screwdriver blade is magnetised it will attract regular steel screws but not stainless steel or those with a coating.
