Soft iron does not retain magnetism. It can be magnetised and demagnetised quickly and easily. Used as a core for Transformers.
'Soft' probably relates to it's submission, when exposed to magnetism. It 'gives in' without too much fuss.
Soft iron will not have any magnetic properties unless it is magnetized, while a piece of copper will not be attracted to a magnet at all. A magnet will attract both soft iron and copper, but the attraction will be stronger for the soft iron due to its ability to become magnetized.
Yes, they can magnetise soft iron. Not sure about demagnetising though. I assume that if more than one or two were placed around the soft magnet, it could demagnetise it.. However, the soft iron would need to be 'hit' so that the poles in the iron can allign with the magnetic fields due to the electro magnet.
Soft iron gasket material is typically composed of low-carbon steel with a high iron content, usually around 99%. This type of gasket material is known for its malleability and ability to conform to irregular surfaces, making it ideal for sealing applications where flexibility is required.
soft iron B-H curve area is very high and hysteresis loss is proportional to it frequency or no of loop cycles per sec and area of loop so hysteresis loss increases in soft iron as electro magnet
Fe(ClO4)3 is an ionic compound named Iron III Perchlorate.
Yes, soft iron is magnetic. Soft iron has high magnetic permeability, which means it can easily generate a magnetic field when exposed to an external magnetic field. However, soft iron loses its magnetism once the external magnetic field is removed.
Iron is soft, and not as strong as steel.

It has been found that if a soft iron rod called core is placed inside a solenoid, then the strength of the magnetic field becomes very large because the iron core is magnetized by induction The core of the electromagnet must be of soft iron because soft iron loses all of its magnetism when current in the coil is switched off or stopped
what is another word for soft. Mild steel.
You can convert a soft iron into a magnet by placing it within a magnetic field, such as that produced by a permanent magnet or an electromagnet. By aligning the magnetic domains in the soft iron to match the external magnetic field, the soft iron becomes magnetized.
That depends on what you mean - soft iron is usually the name given to iron that is easily magnetised and demagnetised. In which case it is usually very pure. Mecahnically soft and hard irons have different crystal structures and trace impurities, although iron is more correctly known as steel when it is anything but 100% pure iron.
By stroking the iron with a magnet in one direction. By placing the iron in a magnetic field produced by a current-carrying coil. By hammering or hitting the iron while it is in a magnetic field.
soft bodies
The strength of the magnetic field increases when inserting a soft iron core into a solenoid because the soft iron core is easily magnetized by the current flowing through the solenoid. This creates alignment of the magnetic domains in the soft iron core, enhancing the magnetic field strength within the core and around the solenoid. Soft iron has high magnetic permeability, which concentrates the magnetic field lines and increases the overall magnetic field strength.
it depends on what state it's in(:
