The reason i have this question is because when i put a glass ashtray in front my TV without a using it at all. There is an area of the TV screen that has a tint variation only were tha ashtray is sitting. I am wondering if it can hold remnance of a magnetic field because a recently used the ashtray to hold a rare earth magnet for an expeirament and recently have noticed this anomaly. Because i've had the understanding that glass has no magnetic properties.
One form of magnetic glass is a painted glass that is laminated to steel. This gives the glass a magnetic white board effect. Because any magnet used must be strong enough to reach the steel through the glass this generally only works with strong magnets like rare earth magnets.

No, most window glass is not attracted to magnets because it is typically made of silicon dioxide, which is not a magnetic material. However, certain types of glass that contain magnetic components may be attracted to magnets.
Try "non-magnetic". Also, since most magnetic materials contain Iron, then any non-ferrous metals are non-magnetic.
No, a typical window is not magnetic. Windows are usually made of glass or plastic, which are non-magnetic materials. However, window frames, particularly those made of metal, can be magnetic depending on the type of metal used.
No, a positively charged glass rod will not be attracted to a magnet. Magnets attract materials with unpaired electrons or magnetic properties, which glass does not have.

No, glass is not a material that is attracted to magnets. Magnets can attract materials such as iron, nickel, and cobalt, but glass does not contain these magnetic properties.

Magnetic materials: -steel -iron -nickel -cobalt Non-magnetic materials: -aluminum -copper -zinc -gold -silver -wood -plastic -glass Note: Not all forms of Iron are magnetic.
It depends on how thick the glass is and how strong the magnets are.
Magnetic Glass Write Boards can be purchased in a variety of colors and sizes from HighTower Group. They have a good website that includes an online video overview: In addition to magnetic glass they also sell all of the accessories like white dry erase markers, magnetic erasers and rare earth magnets
A glass core would decrease the strength of an electromagnet compared to a core made of materials like iron or steel, which are more magnetic. Glass is not a magnetic material, so it would not contribute to the magnetic field as effectively. Using a material with higher magnetic permeability would enhance the strength of the electromagnet.
That statement is not true. Yes a magnet will attract a steel paper clip through air or water. No, a magnetic field will penetrate glass as well... probably. Certain types of glass (which are themselves ferromagnetic) might serve to block a magnetic field.
No, magnets do not have the ability to break glass. Glass is not a magnetic material, so the force of a magnet is not strong enough to break it.
The best types of magnets to use for a magnetic glass board are neodymium magnets. These magnets are strong and durable, providing a secure hold on the glass surface without scratching or damaging it.
One possible way to separate wooden marbles from glass marbles is by using a magnetic field. Since wooden marbles are typically not magnetic, while glass marbles are also not magnetic, one can use a strong magnet to attract and separate the wooden marbles from the glass marbles. The magnet will attract the wooden marbles while the glass marbles will remain unaffected and can be easily sorted out.
Not if it is a glass marble, but you can get metal marbles which would be magnetic in many cases.
