Do a steel nail and a magnet stick together?
A steel nail and a magnet can stick together because steel is a ferromagnetic material. This means that it can be magnetized and will be attracted to a magnet. When a magnet is brought close to a steel nail, the magnetic field can cause the nail to become magnetized, leading to attraction. However, if the nail is not magnetized or if the magnet is too weak, they may not stick together.
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.
What happens if you bring two iron nails close to each other?
Unless one or both iron nails are magnetized, then nothing will happen. If one nail is magnetized, then the other nail will be attracted to the magnetized nail.
Is a steel nail a metal?
Yes, a steel nail is a metal. Steel is an alloy of iron and carbon, and metals are chemical elements that have properties such as malleability, ductility, and conductivity.
Is a nail a magnet?
No, a nail is not a magnet. A nail is typically made of metal, such as iron, whereas a magnet is a material that produces a magnetic field. However, a nail can become magnetized if it is placed in contact with a magnet for a period of time.

Does the nail attracts the pins?
Yes, a nail can attract pins if it is made of a ferromagnetic material, such as iron or steel. When brought close to magnetic pins, the nail can become magnetized and create a magnetic field that attracts the pins. However, if the nail is not magnetic or if the pins are not ferromagnetic, there will be no attraction.
What kind of magnet is a magnetized nail?
A magnetized nail is a temporary magnet, known as an induced magnet. It becomes magnetized when it comes into contact with a permanent magnet, aligning its magnetic domains in the same direction. This temporary magnetism can be lost if the nail is no longer in contact with a permanent magnet.
What happens if you bring two iron nails close to each other?
Unless one or both iron nails are magnetized, then nothing will happen. If one nail is magnetized, then the other nail will be attracted to the magnetized nail.
Can magnets be made of steel?
Most steels can be magnetized, but not all. Some stainless steel alloys are not magnetic.
What happens if you bring two iron nails close to(or touching) each other?
Unless one or both iron nails are magnetized, then nothing will happen. If one nail is magnetized, then the other nail will be attracted to the magnetized nail.

Unless one or both iron nails are magnetized, then nothing will happen. If one nail is magnetized, then the other nail will be attracted to the magnetized nail.
How do you magnetize a screwdriver?
Rub it against a magnet repeatedly. * The screwdriver can only be magnetized if made from steel or another magnetic metal, and most of them are. * Once magnetized, the screwdriver will remain magnetized always.
Is a steel nail a metal?
Yes, a steel nail is a metal. Steel is an alloy of iron and carbon, and metals are chemical elements that have properties such as malleability, ductility, and conductivity.
What is magnetising force?
it is the force experienced by a north pole of strength 'p' placed at a distance 'd' meters from another pole of strength 'm'in a medium of relative permeability.in a steel nail there are these things called domains, in a weakly magnetized nail some of them will be pointing north, south, east and west, but however in a strongly magnetized nail all the domains will point to north.
