When a ferromagnetic substance is magnetized, the magnetic dipole moments of the atoms in the material line up in one direction and are able to produce a net magnetic field. This has to do with iron's elctron configuration on the atomic level.

What happens if you bring two iron nails close 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.
Is a iron nail magnetic?
An iron nail will be attracted to magnets. But it itself will not attract other metals unless it has been magnetized through a certain procedure.
How do you demagnetize a magnetized iron nail?
Rapidly rub the iron with the steel magnet for approximately 2 minutes for every pound of iron. Repeat on all sides of the piece of iron. Repeat process as needed until demagnetized.
Which has more force of attraction an iron nail a piece of chalk and a rubber band?
an iron nail
How does electricity is produced by candle and magnetized nail?
candles can produce heat when it is burnt and when it is attached to something that can be heated or which can pass current ,like iron, the heat energy is partly converted into electricity .and when the burning candles are attached to the magnetized nails, electricity is produced and it passes though the wire and the bulb is lit...candles do not provide a large amount of power but anyway it produces electricity.................guys just try it and observe
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.
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.

What happens if you bring two iron nails close to or touching each other?
Like poles will repel.Unlike poles will attract.
If a nail is made of steel will it be magnetized why?
Yes, if a nail is made of steel, it will will not be magnetized unless it is magnetized by a magnet by being hit.
Is a matchstick magnetic?
No, they are made of wood or paper, and are not magnetic. An iron nail is attracted to a magnet, and can become magnetized.
Which would likely demagnetized a magnetized iron nail?
Dropping it on a hard surface
Is a iron nail magnetic?

What kind of magnet is a magnetized nail?
what kind of magnet is a magnetized nail
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.
If you hit a magnetized nail with a hammer what will happen?
The electrons will fall out of line, demagnetizing the nail.
